About Yednekachew Seleshi Alemu

Nestled in Ethiopia's renowned Guji region, this coffee is cultivated by a collective of smallholder farmers led by third-generation producer Yednekachew Seleshi. Known for its rich tradition of coffee farming, the region's high-altitude farms are home to indigenous landrace varieties that thrive without synthetic fertilizers or pesticides, offering a naturally organic profile.

Hand-picked at peak ripeness, the cherries undergo meticulous natural processing before being sun-dried on raised beds for 12-15 days. This careful process, paired with quality control training for farmers, results in a coffee that is both complex and vibrant, with bright acidity and a clean finish.

Yednekachew and his team are deeply invested in the local community, supporting farmers with organic compost, school supplies, and even sponsoring a local football team. Their efforts also champion women in coffee, as members of Women in Coffee Ethiopia and the International Women’s Coffee Alliance (IWCA).

Awarded the prestigious Cup of Excellence (COE) in 2020, this lot showcases the dedication of Yednekachew and his farmers to producing exceptional coffee. With plans for organic and RFA certifications, this coffee is a testament to both quality and sustainability.

  • Blends are available year-round with a smooth, balanced taste, while single-origin coffees highlight unique regional flavours and change with the seasons.

  • Our single origin coffees are from single estates, regions or producers. It allows a more defined and specific flavour and characteristic of coffee to shine. 

  • After harvesting, coffee undergoes a fermentation process, which shapes its flavor. 

    • Washed (Wet) Process: The fruit is removed early, and the beans are washed and fermented in tanks for a clean taste.
    • Natural (Dry) Process: Whole cherries dry in the sun for weeks, creating fruity, complex flavors.
    • Other Methods: Hybrid techniques like honey processing and modern yeast fermentation add unique twists.

  • Coffee trees come in many shapes and sizes, with characteristics adapted to the local climate, growing conditions and sometimes selectively bred in labs. These are called Varietals, and they can paint a picture of the coffee before you even taste it!

  • Elevation is the altitude the coffee grew at. Higher doesn’t always mean better, but denser coffees usually come from higher altitudes. Denser coffees have higher concentrations of nutrients, which affects the roasting and brewing process.

  • The taste or tasting notes are what we all came here for. The unique flavour profile of every coffee is exciting. We want our tasting notes to reflect the coffee but also be inclusive and easy to understand. For green coffees, we supply the sourcing partner cupping and tasting notes, but for our roasted coffees we taste them and describe them ourselves, as roasting style has a big impact on the expression of the flavours in the cup.

  • We rely on incredible, responsible and quality driven sourcing partners to broker coffees on our behalf in the market, and we want to honour that relationship by sharing their story and how it aligns with ours.
