Ethiopia Guji – Espresso Roast

Sweet and crisp tropical notes of papaya and lime

Country: Ethiopia
Farm: Dikitu
Region: Guji
Varietal: Heirloom
Process: Natural

The Ethiopia Guji is grown by multiple small-lot holders and small families in the Guji region around Dikitu village. Coffee is grown in the shade of false banana, Besana and Berbera trees, which allows for native insects, birds and wildlife to thrive along side the plantation, as opposed to clear-cut harvesting.

More than 350 families on lots as small as 1 hectare in the mountainous hills grow this delicious coffee in rich loamy, red-clay soils. Hand-picked, freshly harvested cherries are dried in the sun on hills and rooftops, and then have the pulp and fruit removed before sorting and selecting the beans into grades.

This coffee arrives on our shores with the help of Utopia Coffee, an Ethiopian-lead importer who brings some of the finest coffees from the region to Australia every year.

Please use the drop down menu below to select whether you would like your coffee as whole beans or ground. The Brew Method is only relevant if you require your coffee ground, so that we can grind it to our lab-tested specifications for the tastiest brew! If you’re getting whole bean, feel free to leave it on “Espresso”. Please make sure all your selections are correct before checking out, once the beans go through the grinder we’re unfortunately unable to return them!
