The Story:

Exported by Tracon Trading PLC,

This is the first time we release a coffee from this new partner located in Ethiopia.

Shakiso is a woreda, or district, in the Guji Zone of the Oromia region. The Shakiso coffee comes from the farm and is processed at the station in the kebele, or village, of that name. The washing station assigns each lot an ID code to maintain traceability. This lot was grown between 1870 and 2000 meters above sea level.

Freshly picked cherries are delivered and immediately put into a “floatation tank” to separate lower quality cherries. The coffee is then left under shade for 3-5 hours to let the surface water dry off before ultimately being spread out on raised drying beds. The cherries are meticulously observed and agitated to ensure even drying and avoid over-fermentation. The natural drying process at the station typically lasts 15 to 18 days.

The end result is a cup full of floral notes, tropical fruit and strawberry-like syrupy body. Delicious!
