About the farmer(s)

Halu Beriti [Washed] — Ethiopia

This coffee is processed at the Halu Beriti Washing Station in the village of Beriti, located in the Gedeb zone region between the towns of Yirga Cheffe & Gedeb. The washing station was established in 2014 & processes the coffee of 750 small-holder farmers.

The farmers grow coffee on very small plots of land along with their own food crops. These are high-altitude farms with fertile soil & mild temperatures that are perfect for growing quality coffee.
