Growing Ethiopia Coffee Beans

Ethiopian coffee is carefully cultivated in mountainside farms, also commonly known as Fincas, at soaring elevations of 1500 and 2200 metres. This equates to roughly 5000-7200 feet above sea level.

Besides the Sidamo region, which we favour here at Coffee Beans Shop Australia, Ethiopia coffee beans are also grown across other agriculturally rich regions such as Limu, Harrar and Yirgacheffe.

Originally growing natively across sparse, dry landscapes at the above sea levels, these bright evergreen shrubs produced the humble coffee cherry. Within each cherry two beans are surrounded by a thick membrane and sugary pulp.

Coffee Beans Shop’s Ethiopia coffee beans are Sidamo, and some of the growing characteristics are as follows:

• Washed or wet process Ethiopian coffee beans, which are dried in raised beds and carefully monitored to thrive in the most diverse growing conditions.
• Sidamo comes from a native Arabica Heirloom Ethiopian variety, one of the most ancient and historic coffee plants in the world.
• Sidamo Ethiopia coffee beans are grown at heights up to 2.5km above sea level.
