This exceptional coffee is from the renowned Gedeo Zone in Southern Ethiopia, a testament to the rich agricultural heritage of the Yirgacheffe district, specifically from the Adame Kebele. The region’s ideal climate, with an average annual rainfall of 1800-2000mm and temperatures between 22-27c, significantly contributes to the coffee’s superior quality.
Cultivated by a community of 800 farmers, each managing approximately less than 1-hectare farms, this coffee thrives in the region’s prime growing conditions. The farms are situated at altitudes ranging from 1800-1900 m.a.s.l, where coffee plants flourish in fertile, red-brown soil. This soil is notable for its excellent drainage. Furthermore, the coffee is shade-grown, a practice that contributes to its complex flavour profile.
