The Guji zone is a southern region of Ethiopia famous for its fruit-forward coffees. The ample rainfall and steep mountainous terrain create ideal growing conditions for the vast array of producers in the region.
This coffee is sourced from around 2,300 farmers in the town of Guracho, Guji. With the arrival of exporting companies in the region 20 years ago, the town finally got a proper washing station to process local coffee crops. This has both allowed for the sale of traceable coffee, but has also created a development boom in the area.
The resulting cup reminds us of lemon, peach, and rose.
