The coffee flavor of Sidamo is very diverse, because of the different soil composition, regional microclimate and countless native coffee varieties, the coffee produced in each urban area has obvious differences and characteristics. Sidamo producing area (Sidama) is located in the south of Ethiopia. The industry here is dominated by agriculture, and the coffee growing area is located around the East African Great Rift Valley (GreatRiftValley).

Shakisso is located in the southern part of Guji and Oromia, adjacent to Sidama and Gedeo. There are many pits in this area, which were used to mine gold in the early days, so there are many potholes in this coffee growing area. This makes people dangerous when walking between coffee growing areas. Shakiso is a unique producing area of Guji / Cedamory, even in Cedamori, which is a remote area away from most coffee producing areas, and another famous local product is gold. Miners, land, race and other factors also caused unrest in the region in 2006. As a result, the biggest problem facing the region now is that ─ needs manpower to maintain the growing area and harvest coffee. Local small farmers began growing organic coffee in 2001 and work closely with medium-sized coffee producers because they are familiar with how to grow forest coffee in the highlands.

Shakisso/Shakiso 's coffee is quite unique, and the coffee it produces has repeatedly attracted market attention. The original meaning of NinetyPlus's legendary bean (nekisse) is from Shaquiso's Nectarfromshakisso, and its producing area and name are all from Shaquiso Shakisso.
