DUWANCHO - NATURAL
PARMA VIOLETS & NECTARINE WITH A CLEAN FINISH
Sourced & roasted for expressive fruit-forward ESPRESSO or juicy FILTER brews
Process: Natural
Variety: Heirloom
Elevation: 1920-2020masl
Region: Sidama
Duwancho is a microlot processed at Daye Bensa’s Gatta Farm in Shantawene Village, Sidama Bensa, Ethiopia. The coffee is sourced from smallholder producers in the adjacent Bombe Village, whose cherries are delivered to Gatta for processing. Grown at 1,920–2,020 metres, the high altitude and cool climate encourage slow cherry development, producing dense, flavour-concentrated beans.
Carefully selected ripe cherries are floated before being dried on raised African beds for 14–18 days. They are then locally hulled and transported to Addis Ababa for final sorting and grading.
This meticulous process highlights the distinctive terroir of Sidama Bensa, resulting in a clean, vibrant natural coffee with exceptional sweetness, clarity, and complexity.

LYCHEE, BLUEBERRY & COTTON CANDY GRAPES
Sourced & roasted for a special POUR OVER, FRUITY espresso-based drinks or luxurious BATCH brews
Process: Anaerobic Natural
Variety: Heirloom
Elevation: 2300–2400m
Region: Sidama /Bensa/ Hamasho Village
Daye Bensa is one of Ethiopia's most celebrated producers — 15 years, multiple Cup of Excellence wins, and over 1400 smallholder farmers across the Bombe mountains. Their commitment to quality is well documented, and Hamasho is one of their finest stations.
At 2300–2400 metres, Hamasho is among the highest elevation coffee stations in Ethiopia. A distinct microclimate, extreme altitude and 161 dedicated local farmers combine to produce coffee of real complexity. Cherries undergo anaerobic fermentation before being dried on raised African beds in thin layers over 16–20 days — a process that locks in clarity and amplifies the unique character of the region.
The result is a clean, expressive cup — ripe lychee, fresh blueberry and cotton candy grapes, with a sweetness that stays.
