[Ethiopian coffee producing area]

There are nine major coffee producing areas in Ethiopia: Sidamo, Yegashefi, Hara, Gemma, Lim, Iruba, Gimbi (Lekanti), Tibby, and Bebeca. Among the nine major coffee producing areas in Ethiopia, the most famous are Yegashefi, Sidamo and Harald, and there are also small producing areas in the large producing areas, such as Cochel and Arica in the Yegashafi producing area, and then there are smaller village producing areas. The coffee plantation in Ethiopia is not obvious, so it is generally divided into large producing areas, small producing areas, village producing areas and washing plants.

Yejia Xuefei: 1800 Murray 2000 meters above sea level | Pastoral Coffee system |

Yega Xuefei is affiliated to the Sidamo region. Because of its unique flavor, rich and complex fruit aroma, it became popular almost overnight, causing Ethiopian coffee farmers to take pride in the flavor of their own coffee. So it was separated out separately. It has been a wetland since ancient times. The ancient saying "Yirga" means "settle down" and "Cheffe" means "wetland". In addition to the small town of Yega Xuefei, it also includes three by-product areas around Wenago, Kochere, Gelena and Abaya. Therefore, YirgacheffeA, Wenago A, Kochere An and Gelena/AbayaA will be more expensive than B of the same name in the new Yega Sheffield rating system.

Located in the eastern highlands of Ethiopia, it is also an ancient trade center and an important Islamic shrine (at its cultural peak in the 15th and 16th centuries), connecting East Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. Its geographical location and its importance as an economic and cultural center made it prominent in the earliest transportation and trade of coffee, injecting a sense of historical solemnity into coffee.

Harald coffee trees grow at an altitude of about 1500-2100 meters above sea level. they were still wild on the slopes before the first century. When baked, they will have a strong smell of chocolate, wild taste with moderate acidity and rich texture, is a very typical mocha flavor. Good Harald beans with jasmine, and similar to the aftertaste of fermented wine, today's Harald still uses the traditional sun method to deal with raw beans. But it is generally difficult for us to drink Harald because it has long been bought by Arab tycoons in the Gulf countries.

Djimmah: 1340m above sea level; 1,830m above sea level | Forest-semi-forest coffee system |

Gemma Coffee grows in the Illubabor and Kaffa regions of Ethiopia, between 1340 and 1830 meters above sea level, and produces and exports about 60, 000 tons of coffee each year. Djimmah is also known as JimmaCoffee.

Gemma's coffee tends to grow between 1340 and 1830 meters above sea level, which provides an ideal climate for coffee growth, and plants can also be protected by forest trees from the noon sun, which also helps maintain moisture in the soil. The town of Gemma is actually quite small, but Gemma coffee accounts for most of Ethiopia's coffee exports, accounting for almost 50%.

Lim's taste spectrum is different from that of Sidamo and Yega Chuefei: its body is thinner, and its floral and citrus aromas are inferior to those of Yega and Sidamo, but with a hint of grass and cocoa and sandalwood.

Yilu Babo (bulk commercial bean producing area): 1350 above sea level, Mueller 1850 | Forest / semi-forest coffee system |

This area is located in the west of Ethiopia, bordering Sudan, and is the most convenient producing area in the west. the complexity of coffee gene is only second to that of Kafa forest, beans are obviously larger than those of Yegashifi and Sidamo, low acidity, good viscosity and balanced flavor. Most of the coffee here is transported to Jinma to be mixed, rarely sold independently.

Jinbi and Leikengti (major commercial bean producing areas): 1500 Murmur1800 above sea level | Forest / semi-forest coffee system |

There are sun-washed and water-washed beans in this area, long-bodied beans similar to Hara, and a few boutique grades are quite popular in Europe and the United States. Most of the Hara, known as the poor, has a sour and fruity flavor due to Yilu Babo, with a bright flavor.

Tiebi and Bebeca (major commercial bean producing areas): 500m above sea level; 1900m above sea level | Pastoral / forest / semi-forest coffee system |

The two producing areas are very close. Tiebi has an enterprise-managed coffee plantation in the north of Bebeca. In recent years, it has promoted the pastoral system and increased farmers' income, with an annual output of about 3000 tons. Both places have wild coffee, the yield is not high, the flavor is very different from Hara and Yega snow coffee, low acidity is the biggest feature, suitable for formula beans, sun and water washing.

Tana Lake (alternative production areas): 1840 meters above sea level | Forest system |

Monastery coffee, the annual output of the surrounding forest coffee is very small, less than 10 tons, in fact, can not be called the producing area, the lake area is full of Orthodox monasteries, churches, religious murals and myths, creating the most "divine" coffee in the world.

European monastic academics opened up a local coffee growing industry, which was later run by coffee communities or cooperatives in villages around the town. There are no special plantations here, and coffee trees are naturally scattered in the forest and countryside. During the harvest season, the Ethiopian Coffee Trading Company goes to town to buy coffee beans collected by farmers.
