Origin Story
Banko Gotiti receives cherry grown up to 2,100m from around 2,000 smallholder farmers in the surrounding highlands. The smallholdings are on average 2 hectares in size, with the coffee being predominantly shade-grown, and intercropped with banana and other indigenous trees.
On delivery the coffee is sorted to remove immature and overripe cherries, before being pulped. An Agaard machine separates the cherries based on density without the need for flotation tanks. The pulped coffee is then fermented for 36 to 48 hours, before being graded in water channels, soaked for 30 minutes to an hour, then laid out to dry on raised beds for 10-15 days. The coffee is raked regularly during the day to ensure even drying, and is covered during the heat of the day, and overnight to protect it from the from the hot sun and rainfall.
We selected this coffee at Nordic Approach’s Spring Cupping in Oslo earlier this year. Nordic Approach is a coffee importer based in Norway that has a reputation for importing some of the best Ethiopian and Kenyan coffees around. Their Spring Cupping is the first chance to taste fresh crop coffees from Ethiopia, so we made the journey to Oslo determined to secure some of the season’s best lots. Our first release from Buku Sayisa was a huge hit with you all, and we’re confident you’ll feel the same about this lot from Banko Gotiti.
