A lightly roasted Ethiopian coffee with fruity and juicy notes

This Grade 1 washed coffee comes from the Banko Gotiti wet mill in Kochere district, in Ethiopia’s renowned Yirgacheffe region. Managed by Alemu Bukato, the station processes cherries delivered by around 650 local smallholder farmers.

Known for its outstanding cup quality, it highlights the careful work carried out at the washing station as well as the commitment of the farming community that supplies it.
