Description
Kurume, Dega, & Wolisho varieties grown by smallholder farmers on garden plots in Chelbesa, Gedeb, Ethiopia and delivered to the Chelbesa washing station (owned by Habtamu Fikadu Aga and his company Kuri Mountain Coffee) to be processed. Processed as a traditional washed, submerged fermentation in tanks before being washed & dried on raised beds, creating an articulate classic profile we love, juicy & bright, like white champagne peach, floral honey, and sencha tea-like qualities.
Kuri Mountain coffee was founded by Habtamu Fikadu Aga in 2015, the grandson of a coffee farmer (Aaga Dinsa), in Kuri kebele in Wollega (in the west) who got his start in 1945. Two generations later, Habtamu operates washing stations in Wollega, Guji, and Jimma, in addition to this one in Gedeb (they have five total currently). The company holds organic certification as well as Fair for Life certification. Until sweeping changes to the Ethiopian export system in the 2017/18 harvest season, Habtamu Fikadu sold coffee through the ECX, but now engages in direct export.
