Farm Detail
The birthplace of coffee has provided yet another stunning example of the complexity in a perfectly produced natural from Yirgacheffe. This coffee is a full natural, processed in the village (or Kebele) of Banko Gotiti. This is close to the border of the Oromia Region and the larger town of Gedeb and the Guji region. These areas are some of the most popular and well know growing areas of the coffee world.
The Banko Gotiti village and wash plant are very well structured and have properly organized to produce very high-quality coffees every season. They also benefit from great access to the ECX, Ethiopia’s Commodity Exchange, in order to sell their coffee quickly and for the best price available.
