Producer Profile
Telila carefully separates lots by kebele as they arrive at the station, an uncommon process in Ethiopia, that allows us to taste coffee from tighter geographic areas and gives an additional layer of transparency. This lot, which is from the Gure Kesso kebele, stood out on the cupping table with its bright, and expressive cup profile. This lot is predominantly made up of 74112, sometimes referred to as Serto. It was released in 1974 as part of a CBD resistance selection program. It is now one of the most planted varieties in Ethiopia. This is now the fifth year we've worked with coffee from Telila.

Jimma
Jimma, located in Southwestern Ethiopia is the fourth largest coffee producing region by volume. Altitudes range from 1,400 to 2,200 masl. Much of coffee growing in Jimma takes place in semi-forested gardens, and the traditional sun-dried natural process is by far the most common processing method in the region.
Serto 74112
74112 is one of six selections that were approved for release in 1974 as part of a CBD-resistance (Coffee Berry Disease) selection program. During the 1970's, researchers from the Jimma Agricultural Research Centre searched the forests in the Illuababora zone for CBD-resistant mother trees. Today 74112 has been widely distributed across most growing regions in the country.
Washed
This coffee was de-pulped using an eco-pulper, and was then wet fermented for 12 hours. After fermentation, the coffee was dried on raised beds.
