"Grown in the well-known Yirgacheffe region of Ethiopia, this coffee comes from a collection of smallholder producers in the area of Gersay."

- Beyou Gersay

Summary of producer

Beyou Gersay

Coffee in this region is a family crop as it is grown by households within small gardens and usually on less than one hectare of land. Producers line their homes with coffee trees, and it is the primary source of income. It is common for producers to intercrop enset, the Ethiopian banana, avocados, and papaya to have additional food sources.

The coffees processed at the Gersay washing stations can either be of the natural or the washed methods. The Yirgacheffe environment and weather has proven to be perfect for the natural process – it is dry, sunny, and reliable throughout the harvest seasons and results in evenly dried coffees, but we are grateful that the washed method is still an option for these woredas, as it adds just another element to the unique range of coffee tree varieties that exist around Ethiopia. With the
greatest genetic diversity of coffee varieties in the world, we are forever amazed at the complexity of the cup profiles that stem from every Ethiopian washing station, including the ones at Gersay.

Summary of variety

Summary of production

Washed WX

Coffee is de-pulped and floaters are separated before going into large tanks for fermentation. De-pulped beans are covered in water and wet-fermented for 12-24 hours to remove mucilage. After fermentation coffee beans are rinsed thoroughly in channels to remove the last bits of mucilage and further separate any floaters. Coffee beans are then moved African beds in the sun to dry for 10-15 days until moisture level reaches 10-12%. On very hot days when coffee beans are on raised beds, they may be covered in plastic to control the rate of drying.
