Professional coffee knowledge exchange more coffee bean information please follow the coffee workshop (Wechat official account cafe_style)

Ethiopian coffee beans from a single farm are rare on the market. Therefore, we are particularly honored to share this micro batch from Guji District with you.

In the past, Guji was listed as the producing area of Sidamo, but although the shape of Guji coffee beans is similar to Sidamo, it has its own unique style. After years of debate, the Ethiopian government has granted Guji producing areas a unique geographical distinction. The Kayong Mountain Farm is located in the Oromia area of the Guji producing area in southern Ethiopia.

The translation of "kayon" means "goal". This is a beautiful spell made by the farm owner to take care of and handle the coffee with all his heart and love, so we use such a meaningful name to name this outstanding coffee with a wonderful flavor. Workers on farms use large-scale pruning, and unlike the average coffee farmer, they use half of the land to plant shade trees, which is rare in Ethiopia.

The Kayong Mountain Farm covers an area of about 240 hectares and uses natural shade, covering more than half of the shade area. Animal manure is the main source of fertilizer.

In 2012, a number of local families set up Kayong Mountain Farm, led by Ato Esmael and his family, out of their pursuit of life and their obsession with coffee. The farm is committed to producing better quality coffee in a sustainable manner.

In 2015, Kayong Mountain Farm had its own washing station and dry sheller, so they could export coffee. Such coffee from a single farm is rare in Ethiopia.

The harvest season is from October to January of the following year, when Ato employs more than 300 farmers to help with the harvest and processing. Kayong Mountain has 25 long-term employees.

Ato pays more for his workers so that people are happy to work with him every year.

Most of the coffee trees here are wild. Kayong Mountain Farm has its own washing station, so it can directly export raw coffee beans and allow them to monitor every detail of coffee processing. You can taste the fragrance of beautiful flowers in the cup, and the beautiful coffee flavor presented in the cup fully proves the farm owner's dedication and determination to the coffee.

Coffee bean label:

The design of the card is inspired by Kayong Mountain Farm. Coffee farmers at Kayong Mountain Farm do their best to ensure that coffee in the area is grown and produced under the best conditions. They plant shaded trees to protect the coffee ecosystem, and they maintain and use the sun and washing processing plants on their farms instead of looking for resources elsewhere. It is the coffee farmers' love of coffee that makes this coffee so special. The design of this card depicts the beautiful terrain of the farm and the process of drying coffee berries.

The coffee hand in front of the street suggests:
