The term 'Yirgacheffe' has been popular in the international coffee market, and it has indeed stolen the limelight over the past decade. Most people generally (or roughly) know that Yegashafi coffee beans are produced in the town of Yegashefi in the Gedeo district of southern Ethiopia, and a similar place name is always followed by a noun such as Wenago, Beloya, Idido. Wait. According to the explanation of professional bean hunters (or professional purchasers) who often travel to and from the producing areas, there are many vague marks, many misplaced positions, and many misinformation.

According to the relevant public information of Linking Coffee, it is necessary to do some work to clarify the relationship between this administrative rank, otherwise even many upstream importers of raw beans will be "confused".

To understand this, Linking Coffee says, you need to understand the four hierarchical structures of Ethiopia's administrative divisions:

Province (Provine)-District (Zone)-Township / Town (Woreda)-Village / Community (Kebele)

According to the official regulations of Ethiopia, the legal production areas of 'Yirgacheffe', which we are familiar with, are distributed in two districts (Zone), with a total of eight townships (Woreda):

Gideo area: Dilla,Wenago,Bule,Yirgacheffe,Kochere,Gedeb

Polina District: Abaya,Gelena

Therefore, the Gedeb beans refer to coffee beans from the town of Gedeb Woreda in Gedeo Zone. Its rank is the same as that of Kochere, and it is not a small village under the town of Cochel, because there is indeed no Jettip Gedeb among the 25 villages under the town of Cochell. (some bean merchants or coffee makers in Taiwan occasionally misplace.)

According to Linking Coffee, the misplacement is understandable. After all, Jettip's location is indeed remote, at least 40 kilometers away from the most famous town of Yegashefi, but that is only to reach the town of Jettip.

If you want to go deep into Wauka. Sakaro (Worka Sakaro), Harold. Barretti (Halo Bariti), Banke. Guodintin (Banko Gotiti), Banke-Dahathu (Banko Dahato) … Wait for the village, but also have to walk more than ten kilometers of mud road, it is really not easy to reach.

The entire Gedeb area is at least 1950 meters above sea level, and the coffee garden is relatively low at 2,200 meters above sea level. Many coffee trees here are planted on a hillside of 2,200 meters. Of course, the coffee beans produced at such an ultra-high altitude are superior to those of the entire Yega Sheffield region.
