DIRECT SHIPMENTS FROM ETHIOPIA

Full container loads to your destination of choice

We source from private or cooperative washing stations, maintaining relationships that give us priority and a unique lot selection, while also exploring new partnerships.

We mainly work in the Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples’ Region, as well as Agaro in the West. We specialise in high-scoring Grade 1 & 2 washed, naturals, & special preps. Our selection includes fruity, juicy, floral, and elegant flavour profiles. Not only do we source stand-out coffees, we ensure that the coffees you cup are the same ones that arrive at your destination. With an office, cupping lab, and a dedicated team of 4, we closely manage our coffees throughout the supply chain. This includes field visits, milling oversight, sample collection, export preparation, and logistics, all while maintaining top-quality and consistency through regular cupping.
