Since 2014 it has served as a hub for more than 750 local farmers, each tending tiny garden plots often intercropped with food crops and grown without fertilisers or pesticides. Here tradition meets precision. Farmers deliver handpicked, ripe cherries to the station, where they are sorted, weighed, and processed with care. For this lot the cherries are fully washed and dried slowly on raised beds, a method that preserves the clean, vibrant character Ethiopian coffees are known for. Ethiopia holds a legendary place in coffee history as the birthplace of arabica. Coffee here was never introduced through colonisation; it grew wild in the forests, was adopted into daily household ritual, and only later traded. That deep-rooted relationship shows up in the cup — floral, complex, and unmistakably Ethiopian. How to Brew Ethiopia Halo Ber
