It is renowned as one of Ethiopia’s premier coffee-growing areas, boasting unique natural conditions: high altitude, abundant rainfall, and ideal growing conditions that lend the coffee distinct floral notes, excellent complexity, and a clean, refined mouthfeel. The coffee here is cultivated by local smallholder farmers, who grow maize, beans, and wheat alongside coffee. They follow traditional farming methods without using chemical fertilizers or pesticides, relying almost entirely on manual labor for planting, harvesting, and processing. Coffee from this region has repeatedly won awards at the TOH (Taste of Harvest) competition. This lot comes from the TOH double-champion Lecho Washing Station. TOH is a prestigious African specialty coffee competition, and winning it signifies consistently high and stable quality. Unlike experimental processes that emphasize bold fermentation flavors, this coffee showcases the purity and elegance of classic Ethiopian washed profiles.
