### Product detailed description

### Coffee Story

* * *

**Haider Abamecha** is the man behind Kebena Estate — a respected figure with over **30 years of experience** in the coffee industry. After working for **five years in Saudi Arabia**, Haider returned to his home region of Jimma and started sourcing coffee on a small scale. Haider's operations are deeply rooted in strong **ethical frameworks**, **organic practices** (Organic and RFA certified), and community welfare. He annually invests in local infrastructure, school building, and supply distribution.

### Region & Farm

* * *

#### Region

Limu Kossa, Jimma Zone, Ethiopia

**Limu Kossa district** of the Jimma Zone is situated within the expansive **Oromia region** in southwestern Ethiopia. Historically renowned for its **fertile volcanic soil**, rich biodiversity, and lush natural forests, the Limu Kossa district provides a natural canopy for **shade-grown coffee**. Altitudes ranging from **1,865 to 2,090 masl**, combined with generous rainfall and stable temperatures, allow coffee cherries to mature slowly, creating an ideal microclimate for coffee growing.

* * *

#### Farm

##### Kebena Estate

Kebena Estate is located in Limu Kossa district and spans over an incredible **532 hectares**, which is rather unique around here. Haider emphasizes **environmental sustainability, social responsibility**, and strict quality control. After harvesting, cherries are immediately sorted by ripeness and density. Having its own processing infrastructure allows the estate **full oversight during fermentation and drying**, ensuring high consistency and a refined cup profile. During the season, Kebena Estate employs **thousands of seasonal workers** alongside a full-time agronomist.

* * *

#### Processing & Flavor

The coffee undergoes a **traditional washed process**. Handpicked cherries are **depulped** to remove the outer fruit skin. The coffee is then **fermented in water tanks overnight** to break down the remaining mucilage. The coffee is then thoroughly washed in **water channels**, where lower-density beans are removed. Finally, the coffee is **dried on African beds** with regular turning for even drying, followed by a final **hand-sorting** phase.

* * *

#### The Taste Idea

" With this lot from Kebena Estate, I aimed to get a clean, harmonious, and vibrant espresso which easily represents Ethiopian coffees. The intense aroma reminds us of **honey, florals such as linden blossom**, and **berries**. Vibrant, well-integrated acidity reminiscent of **mulberry** with **wild honey and dandelion syrup** sweetness and good balance. The finish is clean, long, refined, and brings notes of **golden berry**. "
