Large-scale coffee-growing villages account for about 35% of the country's total coffee production. These coffee farms, which use a multi-tier coffee planting system, are carefully cared for. Coffee farmers do not use chemical fertilizers, but use fallen leaves and animal and plant debris to increase soil nutrition. In addition to coffee, farmers also frequently grow non-coffee crops. Even manor coffee (coffee produced by state-owned farms), which accounts for 5% of the country's total coffee production, shows the characteristics of forest coffee production.

Located in the most advantaged natural conditions, Ethiopia produces unique high-quality coffee every year. Ethiopia's coffee growing cycle brings the joy of harvest to the country every year. Beautiful white coffee flowers will bloom and bear fruit every year from March to April. Only the reddest and ripe fruits are selected as coffee ingredients between September and about December. The export of new coffee begins in November or December every year.

Quality and supply assurance

On coffee farms, high quality assurance is reflected in the timely and strict selection of mature and reddest coffee fruits. Picked coffee needs to be protected from direct sunlight, and the picked fruit is concentrated in a bamboo basket to avoid contact with the soil.

The picked fruit is washed in clean water and preserved under water to improve the flavor and color of coffee beans. The processing process begins with hand selection, washed by machine and made into pulp on the day of harvest, followed by natural fermentation and sun exposure, in order to meet the best humidity standards. After machine processing, these coffee beans are painstakingly and carefully hand-selected and packaged. This kind of processing is carried out in a regular factory with modern equipment and business license, which is finally rated manually and stored in a well-equipped warehouse. Ethiopia exports high-quality coffee to all parts of the world every year. Ethiopia pursues strict quality assurance measures, including visual monitoring and taste taste, so as to ensure zero defect export quality, full fruit and rich aroma.
