ETHIOPIA KEBELE
Explore the tasting notes of a single origin specialty coffee sourced from Ethiopia freshly roasted in our coffee lab, at Meron Roastery. Here is some cool info about the coffee and the farm.
The farm/farmer
Boledu, founded in 2018, means “source” in the local language and combines over 12 years of coffee experience from both Abyote Ageze and Mebrahtu Aynalem. “We produce and export quality coffees both natural and washed from our own washing stations located in Guji, Dimtu Hamblea, Yirgacheffe, Aricha and Gedeb area. We also have an agreement with those in Uraga and in Sidamo, we collect quality coffees from different small farmers”.
By understanding, Mebrahtu means that the coffee is sourced directly from the washing stations and not purchased from the Ethiopian Coffee Exchange (ECX).
About the coffee
“The farmers we work with have been with us for a very long time. Before harvesting, we train them and explain the coffee cherry collection standards and the prize that comes with it. We have a quality supervisor at the washing stations who is always looking to choose who brings good coffee and who doesn’t. Their job is very important! They know when someone is mixing unripe cherries with ripe ones. Up to 10% unripe is fine and we will sort them out at a later stage, but if the farmers bring more moreover, we know that we may not work with them until they agree to our standards.”
