Core origins

1,400–2,400 m
Grown in the clouds
High altitude slows growth, creating denser beans with more complex, concentrated flavour.
60 kg
Standard jute bags
Standard jute bags of 60 kg, other sizes on request. All GrainPro-lined.
Grade 1–4
Specialty to commercial
Every lot is graded for size, density and defects before it is approved for export.
Quality control
Our quality control measures.
Quality is decided before the coffee leaves Ethiopia. These four checks run on every lot we ship.
Advanced sorting for purity
Machines and a trained team remove defects, so every lot cups clean and consistent.
Sealed in jute for freshness
GrainPro liners inside jute bags protect the beans through weeks at sea.
Strict moisture control
Every lot is moisture-tested before it is sealed, so it stays stable at sea.
Complete documentation
Export certificates, origin papers and lot records travel with every shipment.
Coffee Origins
Six regions. Six distinct worlds of coffee.
Ethiopia's coffee regions are worlds apart. Soil, altitude and the air itself all end up in the cup. We keep every lot separate so you taste each region's true character.
Yirgacheffe
Washed, delicate and tea-like
The benchmark for washed Ethiopian coffee. Jasmine, bergamot, lemon zest and peach on a tea-like body.

From farmer to vessel. Here's exactly how.
Every lot follows the same five-stage process. No shortcuts, no surprises.
01 Collected at source
Bought direct from farmers across our six regions, paid for before receipt. Each lot stays separate.
02 Moved under waybill
Lots travel to our warehouse under official waybills, so every bag keeps its paper trail.
03 Cleaned, sorted and graded
Hulled, cleaned and sized, then sorted twice: by machine for density, by hand for defects.
04 Cupped and certified
Ethiopia's Coffee and Tea Authority cups and grades every lot. No certificate, no shipment.
05 Packed and shipped
Marked with your details, sealed in jute and loaded at Djibouti.
Our Coffees
Our process.
The journey from ripe cherry to green bean is one we handle with care. Each method either keeps the cup clean or builds sweetness and body.
Washed
Clean, bright, origin-true.
Fruit is removed, the beans ferment up to 48 hours and dry for 12–14 days. A clean, bright cup, typical of Yirgacheffe and Guji.
Natural (sun-dried)
Fruity, intense, jammy.
Whole cherries dry on raised beds for 12–16 days, building body and ripe berry sweetness.
Honey
Sweet, round, balanced.
Some fruit is left on while the beans dry. Sweeter than washed, cleaner than natural. Coming soon.
Anaerobic fermentation
Wild, complex, unforgettable.
Cherries ferment in sealed tanks before drying. Limited lots with winey, tropical profiles, on request.
Packing
Packed in jute. Sealed for the voyage.
Every lot ships in standard jute bags with an airtight GrainPro liner inside, so the coffee you sampled arrives the way it left.
350 g / 500 g · Trial
Trial sizes of 350 g or 500 g from active lots, so you can cup before you commit.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions.
How much do I need to order?
Start small. Trial orders run from 10 to 50 bags, enough to cup, test a roast and decide. When you're ready, we ship full containers of about 320 bags.
How quickly can I get samples?
We pack 350 g or 500 g samples from active lots and send them by express courier within 72 hours of your request.
Who handles customs and freight?
We do, all the way to the vessel at Djibouti. We clear Ethiopian customs and quote FOB or CIF, whichever suits you.
How do I know it will arrive fresh?
Every lot is moisture-tested before sealing and packed in a GrainPro liner inside the jute bag. The seal that leaves Ethiopia is the seal you open.
