DETAILS

This lot is a result of the meticulous harvesting and processing methods of Ismael Hassen Aredo – owner of the Kayon Mountain Coffee Farm in the Guji region of Ethiopia. For this natural coffee, the ripe cherries are first sorted for ripeness and quality before being rinsed clean of dirt. Then they are spread on raised drying beds or tables, where they will be rotated constantly throughout the course of drying. Although this lot is not traceable to a single variety, it is comprised of native heirloom varieties cultivated in Ethiopia.
