About This Coffee
Ethiopia is the birthplace of coffee and Yirgacheffe is the very heart of it - high up on a mountainous plateau. Gedeb is a micro-region in Yirgacheffe known for the fruity profile of coffee grown there and the mixed heirloom varietals native to Ethiopia. In the cup Chelchele is sweet and silky, with notes of blood orange, coffee blossom and peach cobbler. As it cools, floral notes of jasmine and lavender are coming to the forefront. Chelchele Estate was established in 2013 on 30 hectares of land in the Yirgacheffe appellation; known for its high-quality coffees. More than 2,000 farmers that live in and around the village of Halo Beriti deliver their best cherries to the station. Metad was founded by Aman Adinew whose grandparents were already coffee producers and traders. Before Metad, Aman was President of the ECX (Ethiopia Commodity Exchange). Aware of the potential shortcomings of the Ethiopian coffee sector, they have chosen to promote remarkable coffees while focusing on traceability, ensuring better recognition of the products of their region.
