Yaye- Special Prep - Ethiopia

Highlights

“The Yaye Washing Station, built in 2021, is dedicated to quality through experimentation. The Odakko project is the culmination of four years of study and pre-harvest planning between Testi Coffees and Cafe Imports to create a traceable, single-variety offering using intentionally selected cherry at peak harvest. This novel coffee comes from 50 smallholders from neighboring villages of Yaye and Chericho. The special prep natural process collects cherries limited to small-holder farmers with 90% perfectly picked, right red color, 5% semi red and 5% overripe, all processed and stored separately from other lots.”
