Specialty coffee beans Goat Story Ethiopia Ajere, 500 g

This juicy Yirgacheffe coffee is a delicious result of special care taken when producing it at the Ajere washing station. Once Goat Story has applied the magic touch of a gentle roast, you’re treated with one of the finest Ethiopian washed coffees available on the market right now.

The Ajere washing station was founded in 1998 by Amare Tesema. Today, anywhere between 800 and 850 smallholder farmers deliver their cherries to the Ajere washing station, which measures 1.9 ha. It’s located in the Gedeo zone, which borders the zone of Guji to the east, Borena to the south and west, and Sidama to the north. The station supports local community schools by, for example, building new classrooms. There’s more to Ajere than its communal spirit though. While the coffee is being sun-dried in the station, it’s turned and raked periodically for consistent drying, then covered during the hottest part of the day to protect it from mid-day sun, as well as during the night to safeguard it from rainfall and moisture. This results in a spectacularly sweet and fragrant cup of coffee.
