Loaded with blueberry jam and boasting jasmine and lavender, it works beautifully on espresso as a punchy, fruit-forward cup, and on filter it’s silky and delicate with a lovely acidity. It is a truly wonderful naturally processed Ethiopian coffee that never disappoints.

Founded in 2019, Buku Abel is a washing station in Guji, located in the Oromia region of southern Ethiopia. It sits at 1900-2100 masl on a small hill with great sunlight exposure, cold winds and rich, fertile red soil. The station is managed by Esayas Beriso Arere, who oversees an incredibly organised and well-managed processing protocol, which is expressed in the most delicious of cup profiles.
This coffee was produced from the cherries of approximately 400 farmers. Their plots average 0.5-2 hectares, with semi-forest and garden-type vegetation, and approximately 1800-2400 trees planted per hectare, each estimated to produce around 3 kg of cherry. During harvest season, farmers deliver their cherry to the station around midday, and it is sorted until late afternoon. It is then laid out to dry on raised beds for 18-21 days, until optimal moisture content has been reached.
We hope you like it as much as we do. If you don’t get to try this one, don’t fret: there are more exquisite Ethiopian coffees to come.
