Ethiopia Yirgacheffe Gedeb Gotiti G1

Yuzu, White Tea, Rock Sugar

 

This coffee comes from the Alemu Washing Station / Banko Gotiti located in the Banko Gutiti area of Kochere Woreda in Yirgacheffe region, which is part of Gediyo Zone, SNNPR. Approximately 650 small farmers contribute to the washing stations.

Ethiopia Yirgacheffe Banko Gotiti is sourced from family-owned farms organized around the Banko Gotiti Cooperative located in the village of Banko Gotiti in the southern district of Gedeb in the Gedeo Zone, Ethiopia. The cooperative was established in 2012 as a separate entity from the larger Worka Cooperative, and currently has approximately 300 members. Banko Gotiti Cooperative is well known for the best coffee cherry selection in Ethiopia.

Ripe cherries are carefully selected and immediately placed on raised beds constructed in such a way as to ensure proper air circulation and temperature control for an optimal drying process. The cherries are stored in a local warehouse after the moisture is reduced to between 11.5 and 12 percent, and then transported to Addis Ababa where the coffee is milled and exported.
