Kochere
Kochere, one of the most renowned micro-regions in Yirgacheffe, produces some of Ethiopia’s most complex and well-defined natural coffees. The combination of altitude, heirloom genetics, and controlled natural processing results in cup profiles with high aromatic intensity and great sensory clarity.
The coffee plantations are located between 1,900 and 2,200 meters above sea level, within traditional agroforestry systems where the coffee grows in the shade of native species such as Ensete ventricosum. This environment promotes slow ripening of the coffee cherries and a higher concentration of sugars, key factors in the development of aromatic compounds and complexity in the cup.
Harvesting takes place between November and January through selective manual picking, choosing only cherries at their optimal stage of ripeness. The coffee then undergoes an initial flotation process to separate defective or low-density cherries, improving the consistency of the batch before drying.
Natural processing takes place on raised African beds or patios, where the cherries dry for 12 to 15 days. During this period, the mucilage remains attached to the bean, allowing for a gradual transfer of sugars and fermentable compounds into the seed. Controlling the movement of the cherries, ventilation, and temperature is essential to prevent over-fermentation and preserve sensory clarity.
We roast our coffees every week, creating a specific roasting profile for each one of them.
Here you'll find general guidelines on what Roasting and grinding to choose based on the equipment you have. These are just some basic recommendations, so we suggest you experiment with our coffees yourself.
