Ethiopia Supernatural

$21.50

Ethiopia Supernatural Guji -This is a smallholder-grown, centrally processed natural from western Guji zone. Ethiopia’s Guji zone is a distant and heavily forested swath of land stretching southeast through the lower corner of the massive Oromia region. Guji is heavy with primary forest thanks to the Guji tribe, a part of Ethiopia’s vast and diverse Oromo nation, who have for generations organized and legislated to reduce mining and logging outfits in their area, in a struggle to conserve the land’s sacred canopy. While this coffee is not certified organic, farming methods among smallholders here have traditionally favored organic and regenerative practices, and all produce subsistence crops for the families who live on site. EDN processes coffee both as sundried natural and anaerobically-fermented naturals. Naturals such as this one are received at the processing station in the form of fresh-picked cherry. Cherry is then sorted for defects and uniform ripeness and color, and then placed to ferment in cold water for 24 hours. After fermentation, coffee cherry are immediately moved to raised screen beds to dry in the sun. Drying takes 3-4 weeks depending on the local climate.
