Birthplace of Arabica
Coffee began in Ethiopia's highland forests, and it is still part of daily life, from the morning cup to the long ceremony.
Heirloom varieties
Farmers grow many local heirloom varieties, which is where the floral, fruity and tea-like flavors come from.
Grown high
Most specialty lots come from the highlands, often between 1,500 and 2,200 metres, where cherries ripen slowly.
Washed and natural
Both processing styles are common, so you can choose a clean, bright cup or a sweet, fruity one.
Six origins, six different cups
Ethiopia is where coffee began, and each region gives it a different voice. Tap an origin to see what buyers ask for.
Washed or natural: taste the difference
Processing shapes the cup as much as the origin does. Switch between the two to compare their typical character.
When Ethiopian coffee is ready
Typical timing through the year. It shifts by region and by season, so plan your orders early.
Coffee here is a ceremony, not just a drink
Buna is how Ethiopians welcome guests. Beans are roasted fresh, brewed in a clay jebena and served in three rounds.
Abol
The first round, and the strongest.
Tona
The second round, milder and slower.
Baraka
The third round, meaning blessing.
