Mel Coffee ETHIOPIA Sidamo Logita Honey

Regular price HK$280.00

Moplaco , a long-established coffee exporter in Ethiopia, the birthplace of coffee, has been introducing high-quality Ethiopian mocha coffee to Japan for three generations since its late former president Yanni . In 2008 , Eliana inherited her late father's business, but at that time she had lived in Europe for many years and did not speak much of the local language, Amharic. In addition, the ECX (Ethiopian Commodity Exchange) introduced new domestic circulation regulations starting in the same year, which severed the previously established connection with producers. In Japan, the problem of residual pesticides broke out, resulting in almost zero imports. Ethiopia's culture and values ​​are very different from those of Europe, America and Japan. It has a vast territory and undeveloped infrastructure. In addition, it is a socialist country. The government has great power in the economy and trade and the regulations are very strict. When visiting Ethiopia, one will deeply feel that Eliana and her coffee have survived multiple difficulties that other countries cannot imagine. However, while Eliana was working hard to run the Moplaco company, she also visited Central and South America and other African countries and consumer countries to learn about the specialty coffee market.
