This Bura Hamasho lot is a Grade 1 coffee, reflecting its exceptional quality, meticulous preparation, and the remarkable care of the farmers and processors who produced it.
The Bura Hamasho site, managed by Zablon Trading PLC, is located in Ethiopia’s Sidama Zone at elevations of 1,950 - 2,100 masl. Smallholder farmers from the surrounding communities deliver ripe cherries to the station, where they are carefully processed and sun-dried.
Natural Processing
This coffee was prepared using the natural (dry) process, one of Ethiopia’s oldest and most traditional methods. Ripe cherries were handpicked, sorted to remove underripes, and laid out on raised drying beds where they were turned regularly to ensure even drying and to prevent mold.
The cherries were dried in the sun with the skin, pulp, and mucilage intact, a process that typically takes several weeks depending on weather conditions. Once the cherries reached the ideal moisture content, the dried fruit was hulled to reveal the coffee seeds - beans - inside. This method produces a cup that is intensely sweet, fruit-forward, and complex.
