Ethiopia Natural - King of Guji

Sookoo Coffee's Qabballe blend is a natural coffee that promises a delightful and flavorful experience. Emphasising quality and precision, Sookoo Coffee carefully upholds a maximum layer density of 4cm during the drying process, ensuring that the cherries are efficiently dried without risking over-fermentation or potential defects. To achieve this, the cherries are diligently moved around on the drying beds six times per day, allowing for optimal airflow and uniform drying. The result is a well-balanced and exquisite cup of coffee.

Produced using the Sookoo Coffee processing protocol, the drying time for their lots ranges from 21 to 28 days, a testament to their commitment to bringing out the best flavors in the coffee beans. The name "Qabballe" itself holds cultural significance, meaning "cold" in the local language. This refers to the high altitude, temperature, and climate of the coffee's origin, adding a unique touch to the story behind each cup.

Ture Waji, the visionary behind this exceptional coffee, not only prioritises the quality of the beans but also the well-being of the farmers involved. Taking time between harvests, Ture educates farmers on best agricultural practices, empowering them to improve the quality of their cherries and elevate their livelihoods. Additionally, his company provides pre-harvest loans to support farmers in essential farm maintenance tasks like weeding and planting. Through Sookoo Coffee and Ture Waji's commitment to excellence and social responsibility, Qabballe is more than just a coffee; it's a symbol of sustainable practices and genuine care for both the environment and the community.
