townsfolk coffee ETHIOPIA Arbegona

It has a sweet taste like yellow peach, accompanied by the fruity aroma of blueberries, and a rich, smooth texture, as creamy as cream.
This is a batch that I carefully selected and purchased from many samples during my visit in January of this year.

Albegona is located in Sidama, currently Ethiopia's most prestigious wine region.
The terroir here is exceptional, and coffee from this region has repeatedly won awards at international tasting competitions held in Ethiopia in recent years.

The washing station here is operated by the exporter Tracon , which specializes in processing coffee cherries from local small farmers.
This batch underwent a strict natural process .

To improve quality, Tracon has established several standards, including:
— Only fully ripe cherries that have been carefully hand-selected and are of uniform ripeness are accepted.
— Encourage nearby farmers to improve their quality awareness and harvesting precision, hoping to maintain a consistently high standard every year.

During the sun-drying process, the delivered cherries will be sorted again, retaining only the fruits with ideal ripeness.
Next, it is laid out in a thin layer on an African bed, constantly turned and selected, and after about three weeks of sun exposure and drying, it reaches the ideal moisture content.
