This washed Ethiopian coffee from Gerba Dogo Sodu highlights the Guji region’s bright florals, vibrant acidity, and layered complexity. It is grown in Guji’s highland forests and produced by Shonora Coffee, a family-run company working with over 150 smallholder farmers across Guji to support cultivation and processing practices.
Metric Coffee emerged in 2013 from a partnership between Darko Arandjelovic, formerly of Caffe Streets, and Xavier Alexander, an Intelligentsia roaster since 2009. Operating from the West Fulton neighborhood of Chicago, Metric roasts on a meticulously restored 1961 Probat drum roaster, maintaining equipment that speaks to the roastery's appreciation for craft and precision. The company's recent expansion with Milli by Metric in a century old Avondale building reflects Metric's growth while staying true to its focus on quality, consistency, and ecological mindfulness in every roasted batch.
