Feysel Abamecha, our vertically integrated supplier, operates in the Oromia region of Ethiopia, specifically in the Djimmah zone, Limmu woreda, and Limmu Seka sub-district (Kebele).

The region experiences a distinct rainy season from March to October, which is essential for coffee growth and development. Harvesting takes place between October and December, with temperatures averaging between 13 and 25 degrees Celsius per annum. The site benefits from an average rainfall of 2000mm, nourishing the coffee plants in the fertile reddish-brown soil, resulting in an exceptionally delicious harvest.

The post-harvest processes are carefully managed, with drying times lasting 7 to 9 days and fermentation times ranging from 36 to 48 hours, followed by soaking periods of 8 to 12 hours. These meticulous procedures contribute to the high-quality standards of the coffee produced by Feysel Abamecha.

Sidama coffee is often grown as a luxury garden bean (specialty coffee). Sidama Region is known for its optimal climate conditions, producing large coffee beans with a gentle acidity and lovely fruity undertones.
