Hadeso is a privately-owned washing station that is located in the Shakisso woreda in Ethiopia’s Guji zone. The washing station is named after the nearby local village of Hadeso.
Sitting at approximately 1800m above sea level, Hadeso produces exceptional washed and natural processed lots. The washing station was established in 2017, and currently employs eight permanent staff and 250 seasonal workers. Although not certified, these beans are considered organic. Simply because the accessibility to all the chemicals and fertilisers is limited and the farmers have been using organic farming processes for decades.
The majority of the families that contribute to this lot farm organically on tiny plots of land, which average just 2 hectares in size. Coffee is their main cash crop and grows alongside food crops of corn, grain and bananas. The region’s cool temperatures make it ideal for the slow ripening of coffee cherries, leading to denser beans and a sweeter, more complex cup profile.
