Ethiopia Halo Hartume

This specialty-grade coffee is grown in the Gedeo Zone in Ethiopia at impressive altitudes between 2,050 and 2,280 meters above sea level. Coffee grown at higher altitudes is generally regarded as higher quality due to cooler temperatures that slow the growth of the coffee cherries, allowing the beans to develop a more complex profile. With a cupping score of 90, this coffee is a standout representation of the exceptional quality that the Gedeo region is known for.

This coffee undergoes a fully washed process where the cherries are pulped and fermented for 48 hours in vats. Following fermentation, they are sun-dried on traditional African drying beds for 18-21 days, with careful attention to consistent drying conditions. The beds are raked during the day and covered at night to protect the beans from rainfall.

Farm: This coffee is produced by over 650 smallholder farmers in Ethiopia's South Nation Nationality People (SNNP) region.
