Yega Xuefei is a small village in Sidamo province, Ethiopia. In the Ethiopian language, "Yega" yirga means "settle down", and "Chefe" cheffe means "wetland", so Yega Xuefei has a romantic mood-"Let's settle down in this wetland".

At first, Yejassefi's coffee trees were planted by European monks (a bit like Belgian monks growing wheat to brew beer), and later by farmers or cooperatives. Yejia Chuefei is actually constructed by surrounding coffee communities or cooperatives, including Edido Idido, Hafusa Harfusa, Hama Hama and Biloya near Fog Valley Misty valley, all washed with water, but there are also a small number of off-product beans engraved with sun to enhance the charming fruit aroma and mellow thickness.

These mountain villages are foggy, like spring all year round, with a gentle breeze in summer, cool but not hot, rain but not damp, and no cold damage in winter, giving birth to a unique regional flavor of citrus and flowers. Coffee trees are mostly planted in farmers' own backyard or mixed with other crops in the field, the yield per household is not much, it is a typical rural coffee.

It will take at least several years to change the flavor of coffee by changing planting and variety. In recent years, in order to promote the new, the major producing areas of the world began to sweep the special treatment, through the treatment to change the flavor of coffee.

After being crushed by GUJI for four consecutive years, Yega returned to the championship this year with a specially treated Yega Arrica sun bean, scoring a high score of 91.83.
