About This Coffee

This coffee is sourced from the Gogogu washing station in the Kofee district of Guji, Ethiopia. Grown at high altitudes between 1,900 and 2,200 meters in rich red highland soil, it is produced by over 700 smallholder farmers. The coffee is processed using a washed method, involving depulping, 8–12 hours of fermentation, and drying on raised beds for 5–15 days. It features a sweet flavor profile with distinct notes of nectarine and lemon zest.

Da Matteo

Matts Johansson opened Da Matteo in Gothenburg in July 2007 as a small cafe serving simple Italian food. The operation has since grown into one of the city's most recognized specialty coffee institutions. The roastery at Magasinsgatan processes approximately 150 tonnes of specialty coffee per year, sourced directly from farmers in Guatemala, Colombia, Brazil, Ethiopia, Kenya, and beyond. Roasting leans light to medium, aiming to let the natural character of each bean come through. An in house bakery produces sourdough bread, cinnamon buns, and pastries daily using organic flour and long fermentation. With 60 staff across multiple Gothenburg locations and a wholesale program supplying cafes, restaurants, and offices throughout Sweden, Da Matteo has become the anchor of Gothenburg's specialty coffee scene.
