Kurume, Dega, & Wolisho varieties grown by smallholder farmers on garden plots in Chelbesa, Gedeb, Ethiopia, and delivered to Habtamu Fikadu Aga’s local washing station. Processed as a traditional washed, submerged fermentation in tanks before being washed & dried on raised beds. Kuri Mountain coffee was founded by Habtamu Fikadu Aga in 2015, the grandson of a coffee farmer (Aaga Dinsa), in Kuri kebele in Wollega (in the west) who got his start in 1945. Two generations later, Habtamu operates washing stations in Wollega, Guji, and Jimma, in addition to this one in Gedeb (they have five total currently). The company holds organic certification as well as Fair for Life certification. Until sweeping changes to the Ethiopian export system in the 2017/18 harvest season, Habtamu Fikadu sold coffee through the ECX, but now engages in direct export. Cherry is purchased from the local collection centre and Habtamu’s network of out-growers and trucked to the washing station, where
