Story
This coffee originates from the Benti Nenka village in the Guji Zone of the Oromia region. It grows at elevations ranging from 2000 to 2300 metres above sea level. In this area, coffee farming is deeply rooted in the community's culture and sustains their livelihoods. Most farms are small-scale, typically 1-2 hectares in size.
The coffee cherries are meticulously handpicked by landowners and their families. They practise intercropping, combining coffee with other food crops, which optimises land use and provides sustenance for the community. The residents hold great pride in their coffee cultivation.

Fermentation: Washed
Coffee cherries are carefully handpicked when ripe and delivered to the washing station on the same day for processing. The washed process begins with pulping and a 24-hour dry fermentation period, followed by a thorough washing and soaking in clean water. The coffee is then dried meticulously on raised drying tables, ensuring an even process that prevents the parchment from cracking.
