This Ethiopian coffee from Bensa is produced by Tuke Yute using controlled anaerobic fermentation. Cherry is sealed in oxygen-limited tanks before being carefully shade-dried. The anaerobic natural processing method creates an expressive profile with Key Lime and Raspberry notes, balanced by Cane Sugar sweetness. The coffee is characterized by brightness and clarity despite the intensity of the processing method.

Their approach is rooted in direct trade partnerships through their Farmlevel Initiative, which emphasizes paying premiums for quality and investing in coffee-producing communities. They roast in small batches on vintage Probat roasters, aiming to craft a future for coffee that is equitable and innovative.
