Oromia is approximately located between 3 degrees and 15 degrees North latitude and 33 degrees and 40 degrees longitude. The region is known for its unique native vegetation as well as for being the center of diversity for many different species of plant. The region is the birthplace of coffee. The Oromo’s use coffee as food, drink, trade, spiritual nourishment and as a tool for peacekeeping.

Sidamo cherries ripen at a leisurely pace, resulting in a complex flavor profile. The lower temperatures during ripening contribute to its sweet taste and slightly fruity aroma. The beans are handpicked at peak ripeness and meticulously sorted. The pulped natural process allows the mucilage to ferment naturally for 72 hours before drying on raised beds.

These coffees are grown traditionally, without the use of pesticides or artificial fertilizers.
