This coffee embodies one phrase: Cup Quality.  It is not the most bodacious Ethiopia we've tasted, it is not the most acidic, powerhouse fruit bomb we've brewed, instead where it shines is in balance of flavor and cleanliness of cup.  It is a beautiful, thoughtful coffee with perfectly metered doses of flavor.  With that said, read on about the farmer below.

Mr. Mengeche Derso owns and operates 15 hectares of land in the highlands of Gedeo Zone, located in the Southern Region of Ethiopia. This region, and Gedeo Zone in particular, is renowned for its production of high-quality Yirgacheffe coffee. At 62 years old, Mr. Mengeche brings decades of farming experience to the region. His dedication to producing top-quality coffee has earned him recognition from government organizations.

Mengeche has 12 children. Along with four of his children, he actively works on the coffee farm. They use natural fertilizers such as animal manure and plant remnants to enrich the soil. His farm, situated at 2300 MASL, is one of the many in the area known for producing premium coffee.
