The Guji producing area in southern Ethiopia is adjacent to the Sidamo and Gedeo areas, with towering mountains, highlands, plateaus, valleys and plains. The geology of the area belongs to volcanic soil with rich nutrients and good drainage. The depth of the soil is nearly two meters, and the surface soil is dark brown or brown. The biggest advantage of this area is that the soil fertility is maintained through the circulation of natural organic matter, using the withered leaves or litter of the surrounding trees and the residual roots of plants as natural fertilizer.

The production area of Guji has always been a production area concerned by editors, and the development in recent years has confirmed that the rise of Guji production areas is indeed one of the important trends in the development of Ethiopia in recent years. In addition to beans from larger producing areas, such as Humbela and Shaquiso, there are also excellent beans from processing plants or even single estates, which are beyond the reach of traditional Yega Cherophine producing areas. What's more, in terms of innovative treatment methods, several batches of honey treatment that we have the honor to test again this year, except for Gesha Village, are all from Guji producing areas. To seize the trend in Ethiopia, Guji can be said to be a key point that can not be ignored.

Wonsho small farmers are members of the Hunkute cooperative, have a very high height and very strict management, consistent production quality, about 1912 small farmers provide a small amount of coffee cherries.

It is because on average, the farmers' farm area is less than 1 hectare, and a tree usually produces less than 200 grams of raw coffee.
