About This Coffee

Washed at Gerba Dogo in Guji (2,100–2,300 m), this elegant coffee shines with jasmine, peach, and bergamot, balanced by honeyed sweetness and a hint of cardamom. The washed process delivers a clean, bright cup with lively acidity and refined, delicate flavors.

The Terroir

Coffee from Gerba Dogo in the Guji region of Ethiopia is celebrated for its unique terroir and vibrant flavour profile that reflects the area’s rich biodiversity and high elevation. Grown in mineral-rich volcanic soils at altitudes often exceeding 2,000 meters, the beans develop slowly, allowing sugars and complex aromatics to fully mature. The result is a cup known for its bright, tea-like clarity, floral aromatics, and layers of stone fruit, citrus, and berry sweetness—a sensory experience distinguishing Guji coffees from other Ethiopian origins like Yirgacheffe or Sidamo. Smallholder farmers in Gerba Dogo typically use traditional, organic farming practices and careful handpicking, followed by meticulous natural or washed processing, further enhancing the coffee’s nuanced flavours. This marriage of natural conditions and artisanal cultivation makes Gerba Dogo coffees some of the most distinctive and sought-after in speciality coffee.
