Ethiopia Yirgacheffe Konga G1 Natural

Strawberry. Lavender. Vanilla.

About this coffee :

This exceptional natural coffee was grown by smallholder farmers living around the kebele (town) of Konga in Yirgacheffee, SNNPR Region.

The washing station (Konga Wote) is partly owned by Mr Beyene Eshete and Mercanta Coffee Hunter partner in the region, Primrose S.P. PLC. Primroses are responsible for dry milling and exporting the final product.

Most contributing farmers own less than a hectare of land, and they grow coffee simply as a backyard cash crop. coffee will usually be interspersed with other subsistence crops, such as; sweet potato, mangos and avocados, but there are no other primary cash crops grown in the region.

Varieties of coffee grown here are traditionally referred to as ‘heirloom’ by exporters – a catchall terminology that often masks the wide assortment of varieties that may be present within various regions…even, within farms. It is thought that there may be up to ten thousand naturally occurring varieties in the wild.

Many of these varieties will have been developed originally by Ethiopia’s Jimma Agricultural Research Centre (JARC), which, since the late 1960s, has worked to develop resistant and tasty varieties for the Ethiopian coffee industry and also to provide the agricultural extension training needed to cultivate them.

Our suggested method to have this tasty clean natural process coffee is to share amongst families & friends, great coffee to be an introduction to the good coffee world.
