Alemayehu’s grandfather established the farm in 1946 planting it with coffee from Kochere. His father divided his land among his sons, he gave each of his son’s coffee seedlings so they could grow their own coffee.
Alemayehu started running the farm in 1998.
A delicious natural process coffee is a tricky thing to get right, but coffee in Ethiopia has been processed this way for centuries (since coffee was first roasted and ground for brewing) and the farmers have generations of experience and tradition behind them.
At the farm, Alemayehu works with his entire family. His wife is responsible for preparing organic compost for the coffee trees. Each of his brothers received a plot, and they help and support each other, especially during the harvest season, when Alemayehu employsbetween 40-60 additional pickers to ensure a quick harvest at the optimal time when the cherries are ripe.The high rewards he receives for the coffee allow him, he says, to invest in necessary equipment and machinery such as generators, lighting, and more, and generally to improve the living standards of his family and employees.
Alemayehu’s coffee used to find its way to the market through a union, but he has since taken out an export license of his own and now working under his own license. (that means less middlemen) He has won awards from the government for the quality of his coffee.
Notes : Floral, black tea, peachy.
