Saneji is wasing station in Works in Ethiopia's Gedeo Zone. Yirgacheeffe has long produced some of the worlds most sought after coffee qualities, and Worka has carved out a unique reputation for fbeautiful florality and stong sonefruit notes. Cherry is collected from about 300 nearby smallholders to produce this exceptional lot. This is our first year working with Sanejo Station, who produced a late-harvest stand out lot.


Ethiopia is a coffee powerhouse. It's the birthplace of the plant, the seventh largest producing country in world, and one of the world’s leading consumers of coffee as well. Because coffee is such a vital part of the economy in Ethiopia, the government has a hand in it, making for an interesting coffee context. Ethiopia is proudly a nation that has never been colonized, and the longtime government has been from a tribal minority (the Tigray). In 2018 there was a coup that installed an Oromo president - the largest tribe in Ethiopia. Its namesake region, Oromia, sprawls awkwardly south and west from the capital city Addis Ababa - and covers the majority of coffee territory in Ethiopia.
