Ethiopia Sasaba

Tsegay Hagos Tesfaye founded Sasaba in the tiny town of Bule Hora in the Kercha district of Ethiopia. The mill has a large pulper and over 600 raised African drying beds. Sasaba processes coffee received from over 500 smallholders working in the hills surrounding the mill. Like much of Kercha, Sasaba is around 2,000 meters above sea level. The Sasaba mill works with farmers who have proven to produce high-quality coffee and ensures fair prices for their crops.

This is the 3rd season we've sourced the Sasaba, so you know it slaps. This year's crop has a classic natural Ethiopia vibe with flavors that remind us of fresh cocoa, baking spices, and blueberry jam. Our cups must have holes because they're always empty, which tells you how we feel about our old friend here. So grab a bag cause this coffee goes all the way to eleven!
