Summary of producer

Smallholders

Established in 2022, the station spans 1.5 hectares and continues to grow, with plans for solar tunnels, underground water access, and improved drying infrastructure. Bochesa works with 823 local farmers cultivating classic Ethiopian varieties such as 74110, 74112, 7440, and 7454. Each year, between 500 and 600 tons of cherry are processed on site by a team of six permanent staff, four seasonal coordinators and over 200 temporary workers during harvest.

Bochesa stands out for its commitment to the community, offering financial support, coffee seedlings and premium payments to farmers. The sustainable approach includes practices to optimize water use and treat waste. Meticulous selection and processing, with double Washed, controlled fermentation and drying on raised beds, ensure a consistently clean, high profile coffee that reflects the best of Sidama.

Summary of variety

74110, 74112, 7454

Originating from wild coffee trees in the forests of Metu, Illubabor, these cultivars were chosen for their natural resistance to coffee berry disease and leaf rust, as well as their high yield potential. 74110 and 74112, in particular, are compact and resilient plants that thrive at high altitudes and are now widely grown across regions like Sidama and Yirgacheffe.

Summary of production

Washed WX

Cherries are carefully cleaned and sorted before fermentation in clean water tanks, where temperature and time are closely monitored. After 12–16 hours, the coffee is washed again and moved to raised beds, where it dries slowly over 10 to 14 days. The parchment is then rested for around 20 days before evaluation and export.
