This is our first year working with the Chorso Bule site, which rests at some of the highest elevations in all of Gedeb. In the cup we find peach tea, melon, and jasmine.

ABOUT CHORSO BULE
We have been exploring Gedeb for many years, and its distinct and expressive profiles have made it one of our favorite regions in all of Ethiopia. Chorso Bule is a new site for us, and we are grateful to our exporting partners at SNAP for their work in sourcing and exporting this coffee.
ABOUT ETHIOPIAN LANDRACE
Ethiopia is widely acknowledged as where coffee originated, and its production continues to represent a significant part of the country’s economy. DNA testing has confirmed over 60 distinct varieties growing in Ethiopia, making it home to the most coffee biodiversity of any region in the world. Given the tradition of coffee production in Ethiopia and the political interworkings of the Ethiopian coffee trade, it is virtually impossible to get single variety coffee lots from Ethiopia. This is changing, albeit very slowly. Most Ethiopian coffees are blends of the many Ethiopian varieties, and referred to simply as 'Ethiopian Landrace'.

The cost of getting a coffee from cherry to beverage varies enormously depending on its place of origin and the location of its consumption. The inclusion of price transparency is a starting point to inform broader conversation around the true costs of production and the sustainability of specialty coffee as a whole.
