Natural Process & Traditional Farming Practices
This coffee is a natural process Ethiopian coffee, meaning ripe cherries are handpicked and dried whole on raised beds under the sun. Farmers carefully turn the cherries throughout drying, which takes approximately two to three weeks. This method enhances sweetness, fruit intensity, and aromatic complexity.
Farms in Guji are typically small—often under one hectare—and use traditional, organic-by-default farming methods. Most work is done by hand, with minimal mechanization and little to no use of chemical fertilizers or pesticides.

Our in-country partner works directly with Guji’s smallholder farmers to refine processing methods and unlock the full potential of each lot. These partnerships support quality improvements, transparency, and long-term sustainability—adding value for farmers, roasters, and coffee drinkers alike.
