This ensures that consumers are not merely enjoying a cup of coffee but are partaking in a carefully curated journey from the Ethiopian farm to their mug, which respects both the environment and the hardworking farmers who cultivate the beans.

By prioritizing direct imports, we bridge the gap between Ethiopian coffee growers and global consumers, fostering a relationship built on trust and authenticity.

Here's to great-tasting coffee that's farmed with care.

With over 36 years of deep-rooted experience in the Ethiopian coffee industry, our ambition is to stand as the world’s premier importer of Ethiopian green coffee, specifically the Arabica beans native to Ethiopia.

Rooted in the verdant coffee regions of Ethiopia, from Sidamo to Yirgacheffe to Harrar, we’ve intricately woven the rich tapestry of Ethiopian coffee culture, ceremonies, roasting traditions, and the unmistakable Ethiopian coffee flavors into our business ethos.

Our journey, from the bean’s origin in Ethiopia to the cup you savor, is a testament to our unwavering respect for the Arabica beans, the diligent Ethiopian coffee growers, and our esteemed clientele. Our operations span the spectrum of coffee cultivation in Ethiopia, its export, direct import, specialties, and top-tier services. While our catalog boasts a diverse range of coffees, the essence of single-origin Ethiopian coffee stands paramount with its unique profile and tasting notes.

Through countless cupping sessions and collaborations, we’ve fostered profound relationships with some of the globe’s most discerning producers, from millers to exporters. These partnerships have enabled us to curate profile and standard specialty coffees that are meticulously cupped to ensure consistent quality across crop cycles. By intertwining the history and traditions of Ethiopian brews with modern tastes, we aim to provide unparalleled service and the best Ethiopian coffee beans to our clients, be it wholesale or branded selections.

Ethiopian Coffee isn't just coffee; it's your coffee.

Flavorful Impact: Where Ethiopian Coffee Meets Global Progress

Ethiopian coffee is more than just a beverage; it’s an intimate experience connecting you to the cradle of coffee’s origin. Each sip is a journey, not just in taste but in legacy. The beans grown in Ethiopia’s highlands’ rich, fertile soils carry stories of ancient traditions, generations of farmers, and the sacred rituals of the world’s first coffee drinkers. When you choose Ethiopian coffee, you’re not just selecting a flavor profile but embracing a history that has been lovingly cultivated and shared across millennia.

But it doesn’t end at the historical or geographic connection. Ethiopian coffee offers an unparalleled range of unique flavors, from the fragrant jasmine notes of beans from Yirgacheffe to the wine-like undertones from Sidamo. This diversity ensures that Ethiopian coffee isn’t just a coffee; it’s your coffee, tailored to your preference, aligning with your mood, and resonating with your soul. Whether you crave the fruity brightness of a natural process coffee or the smooth, washed profiles, Ethiopia delivers an authenticity that’s hard to find elsewhere.

So, when you pour that cup of Ethiopian brew, know it’s more than just caffeine to kickstart your day. It’s a ritual, a piece of art, a moment of reflection. It’s an appreciation for the intricate dance of nature and nurture that brings those beans to your cup. Indeed, Ethiopian coffee isn’t just coffee; it’s your coffee, a testament to your refined taste and recognition of coffee’s rich heritage.

More than a Cup: Ethiopian Coffee's Promise to Farmers and You

Every cup of our Ethiopian coffee tells a story – one of dedication, community, and a brighter future. With each origin we source from, we’re bringing you the distinctive taste of Ethiopia and ensuring the prosperity of the farmers and their communities. But this narrative doesn’t end with us or them; it includes you. With every sip, you play a crucial role, affirming the value of sustainable farming, community upliftment, and the rich traditions that make Ethiopian coffee incomparable.

The unique cup character of Ethiopian coffee is unparalleled, a symphony of flavors and aromas that is practically impossible to find elsewhere. Those washed in the abundant waters of the southern zones, particularly in Sidama and Gedeo, carry hints of citrus, tropical fruits, and floral notes.

These regions, renowned for their Sidamo and Yirgacheffe coffees, predominantly use washing methods, producing Grade 1 and Grade 2 beans. Meanwhile, in the eastern growing zones around Harrar, where water is a precious commodity, the beans undergo natural dry methods, resulting in Grade 3 and Grade 4 coffees.

This meticulous process preserves their profound flavors and encapsulates the essence of the land they come from. Whether washed or naturally dried, every bean holds the magic of Ethiopia and the promise of a brighter tomorrow.

Voices of Trust: What Our Genuine Customers Say About Us

Excellent! Fantastic Company What a great enterprise! I've been shopping Ethiopian Green Organic Coffees from them for quite some time, and while their lightning-fast shipping is amazing, their coffee is their crown jewel! I order whole beans and ground coffee and have never been happier. I look forward to my first cup of coffee when I wake up. Dark Sumatra, known as Sumatra Mandheling, is my favorite and highly recommended.

Their coffee is of excellent quality, and they will even create bespoke blends for you. They've been accommodating in developing retail choices for our coffees and teas.
