ABOUT
This forest coffee is produced by Nazimu Abamecha, in the Jimma appellation. Nazimu inherited his farm from his family, and cultivates 8.5 hectares of quality coffee in a rich natural environment of indigenous tree species.
Nazimu has a wealth of experience in the coffee trade, having worked for 8 years with the Duromina cooperative, which he set up. He is now working independently to improve the traceability of his coffee and supply very high quality micro-lots.
For the natural process, the coffee cherries are collected from the farm and sorted by floatation in a tank donated by Belco. They are then transported to the drying beds where they are dried for between 15 and 20 days, depending on the weather conditions.
