This coffee is one of our ‘Special Releases. Only available for a limited time!
This coffee was produced by Wako Aba, who grows and processes coffee on his 5.5-hectare farm, Bonki Busa. Wako’s farm is located near the woreda (administrative district) of Kochere. The farm is privately owned and operated by Wako and his family.
Wako’s farm sits at a staggeringly high elevation of 2,200m above sea level. The high elevation of the farm, combined with the region’s cool climate, is ideal for the slow ripening of coffee cherries, leading to denser beans and a sweeter, more complex cup profile.
Wako inherited the land from his parents, and has been growing coffee for the last fifteen years. Prior to that, he kept bees and produced honey, which alongside coffee, has been produced in the region for thousands of years. Like many Ethiopian smallholder farmers, Wako uses organic farming practices that rely heavily on the manual labour of him and his family.
