Kokose [natural] — Ethiopia

This coffee was grown by small-holder farmers in Kokose, a small town in the Sidama region of Southern Ethiopia. After harvesting, the coffee cherries were delivered to the wet mill of Elto Coffee, a specialty coffee business owned by Eliyas Dukamo & Atiklit Dejene. At the wet mill, the coffee was processed using the natural method, firstly they were sorted to remove under & over ripe cherries, foreign material, like sticks & leaves, & then placed on raised beds to dry for 15-18 days. The dried cherries were then left to rest for 30 days before the dried flesh was removed mechanically.
