About this coffee

The Dambi Uddo drying station, high up in the hills of Shakiso, Guji, buys cherry from roughly 100 small-holder farmers. While the norm in Latin America is for farmers to own many hectares with thousands of coffee trees, in Ethiopia, most growers are small landholders often harvesting coffee in their gardens, alongside crops for personal and family consumption. The average farm size is 2.5 hectares. While this is actually larger than the average farm size in Colombia, planting is much less dense and nearly all of the production happens within a fully or semi-forested system. This means that there is much lower yield per tree and many fewer trees per hectare.
All of the cherry that is delivered to Dambi Uddo is fully organic. The cherry is separated by sub-kebele upon delivery and this lot is from the Shoondhisa sub-kebele within the Suke Quto kebele.

Producer information

Sookoo Coffee, founded by Ture Waji and his brother Assefa in 2018, has become a key player in Guji’s renowned coffee scene. Located in Odo Shakiso within the Oromia region, Sookoo Coffee is built on a commitment to quality and community. Their beans are sourced from surrounding Kebeles, each lot reflecting the unique terroir of its origin.
This particular lot comes from the Shoondhisa Kebele and features varietals Gibirinna 74110 and Serto 74112, both selected for their resistance to coffee berry disease by the Jimma Agricultural Research Center in 1974. These cherries are naturally dried on raised beds, preserving the rich flavors Guji is known for.
