Buku Sayisa 74114 [natural] — Ethiopia

This coffee was processed at the Buku sayisa Washing Station.The coffee is grown in the surrounding area by around 450 small-holder farmers in rich, fertile soils at very high altitudes. Coffee trees are planted amongst the family's food crops.

During harvest, cherries are selectively hand-picked before being delivered to the washing station. There they are sorted for over or under-ripe cherries & placed on raised beds to dry for 2 - 4 weeks. The dry cherries are then rested in a cool warehouse for 2 weeks before the dried outer pulp is mechanically removed.
