Yegashefi is a small town, 700-2100 meters above sea level, synonymous with Ethiopian fine coffee. It is a wetland since ancient times, and the old saying "Yirga" means "settle down" and "Cheffe" means "wetland". The way coffee is produced and the flavor is so prominent that Ethiopian coffee farmers compete to be proud of their coffee with Yegashfi flavor, and become the most famous coffee producing area in Africa.

Located in the most privileged natural conditions, Ethiopia produces unique high-quality coffee every year. Ethiopia's coffee growing cycle brings harvest joy to the country every year. Beautiful white coffee flowers bloom and bear fruit every year between March and April. Only the reddest and most mature fruits are selected for coffee between September and about December. New coffee exports begin in November or December each year.

In Ethiopia, coffee classification and quality control systems are divided into producer, regional and national levels. All coffees are inspected by local inspection agencies before they leave the country of origin, and then re-inspected at coffee inspection and grading centres in Addis and Diredova to determine their quality grade. Grading coffee before auction and sale is important for all groups involved in production, acquisition, export and consumption. Before export, coffee must also be sent to a national quality control agency for inspection to confirm that origin, color, etc. meet export standards to ensure the reputation of Ethiopian coffee

1. Only fully ripe dark red coffee cherries are picked at the time of picking. Before being exposed to sunlight, the beans are screened for defects at the processing plant to make the beans look more average in size and maturity.

2. Then, use a raised wooden frame or whole trellis for sunning, which will avoid the risk of the beans getting contaminated by the smell on the ground. During the exposure process, the beans should be carefully cared for so that the coffee beans can be evenly exposed to moisture; every three to five days, coffee workers will manually screen out the defective moldy beans. So by the time the sun is done and the beans come into the field without the skin and flesh, a piece of sunburned, bright red coffee cherry is already at a very blemish grade. After harvesting, coffee beans must be immediately processed, otherwise they will begin to ferment and cause coffee beans to produce odor. There are two methods of treatment,"sun method" and "washing method", which will cause different flavors. The beans of solarization method have complete natural mellow flavor, gentle aroma and more colloid; the washing method has good mellow flavor, high aroma and lively acidity.
