Colombia Las Delicias

Jasmine, Apple, Black Tea   Wonago Factory, located in Ethiopia’s famed Yirgacheffe region, is a hub for smallholder farmers whose plots often measure less than a hectare. This area, part of the Gedeo Zone, is celebrated worldwide for producing some of the most distinctive washed coffees, thanks to its high elevations—typically between 1,700 and 2,200 meters—and fertile red-brown soils. Farmers cultivate heirloom varietals, many of which are indigenous to Ethiopia, and deliver ripe cherries to the factory for centralized processing. The washed method here involves careful pulping, fermentation, and washing, followed by drying on raised beds, a meticulous approach that preserves clarity and highlights the terroir’s unique expression. The resulting coffees from Wonago Factory are renowned for their bright, tea-like qualities and complex aromatics. Expect a cup that is clean and vibrant, often showcasing floral notes like jasmine and honeysuckle, alongside citrus flavors such as lemon and bergamot. The combination of altitude, heirloom genetics, and precise washed processing yields a profile that is both elegant and layered, embodying the classic character of Yirgacheffe. Beyond flavor, Wonago Factory represents the collective effort of Ethiopia’s smallholder farmers, whose traditional practices and deep-rooted heritage continue to define the global reputation of Ethiopian coffee   Area: Gedeb, Yirgacheffe Process: Washed Variety: Heirloom Altitude: 1700 - 2200 meters
