The plateau of Ethiopia, a coffee producing area in the world, is the birthplace of coffee.

The highlands of Ethiopia are the birthplace of coffee. The traditional drying method is still used to produce mocha-Hara beans (Harrar,Harari,Harer or Harar) at an altitude of about 2,000 meters near Harrar in the east. Hara has a medium texture with a fruit wine-like flavor, and a good Hara is as wild as the best Yemenmoka. Dried beans from other regions, such as Gimbi or Ghimbi, Jima,Jimma or Djimah and Sidamo, are equally wild and wine-like, but not so rich and a little rough. The water-washed mocha from Jinbi in the west has the same sour wine as Hara, but it is packaged with a richer and balanced feel and a thicker texture. As for water-washed beans from the south, such as Sidamo and Gemma, they keep less sour wine and replace them with more gentle and delicate flavours of lemon and flowers. The best is produced in a high, narrow area of Sidamone, called Yirgacheffe, whose rich taste brushes the taste buds and leaves an endless aftertaste, while the slightly sour taste is similar to Sumatra, swimming in a rich texture; in addition, it adds a unique soft floral fragrance, which is really the only coffee in the world.
