This is our first coffee purchased directly from Ture Waji, producer behind Sookoo Coffee, and it marks the start of a new buying relationship.
Naturally processed, this lot was dried at Sawana, Ture’s drying station in the hills of Shakiso, Guji. Established in 2022, Sawana was built to separate processing for coffees from Bookkisa and Shoondhisa, which were previously handled at a single site. The station now buys cherries from around 30 smallholder farmers, allowing for more focused processing and improved clarity in the cup.
Coffee production in Ethiopia is structured differently to much of Latin America. Instead of large estates, most growers work small garden plots, often alongside subsistence crops. Average farm size sits around 2.5 hectares, with lower planting density and much of the coffee grown in semi-forested systems. That means fewer trees per hectare and lower yields, with national average output around 0.8 kg of cherry per tree.
