Little Waves Coffee Roasters
Durham, NC, USA
Dinkinesh: Yukro, has a bright, tart sweetness and all the best characteristics of coffees from Ethiopia. This is our third year sourcing coffee from the Yukro Cooperative. The Yukro Cooperative, like other cooperatives in the Kata Muduga Farmers Cooperative Union, keeps individual batches of coffee from their washing station separate, and in a year can create a dozen different lots from the beginning to the end of the season. This particular selection, Lot #13, comes from coffee harvested at the beginning of the season. Yukro’s standard of quality emerged just ten years with the help of USAID’s Technoserve project. Technoserve is an international nonprofit that invests heavily in developing countries by offering information, capital, and access to markets. Yukro was provided with brand-new processing equipment, lifting their coffees from low Grade-5 sundried naturals to the high grade uniquely beautiful coffees we know and love.
