Grown by smallholder farmers in Banko Chelchele, a village in Gedeb within the renowned Yirgacheffe region, at 1,900–2,300 metres on fertile red clay soils. The farmers work in a vertically integrated model with EDN, which supports them with financing and quality premiums and oversees every step from cherry to export. Only fully ripe cherries are handpicked between October and December. For this special lot, whole cherries ferment for 5 to 10 days in sealed, oxygen-free tanks alongside local botanicals, then dry slowly in the sun on raised beds. The result is an expressive, aromatic cup: blackcurrant, lemon tea, violet and dark chocolate.
