Serving over 750 local farmers, the station receives ripe coffee cherries grown on tiny garden plots, often intercropped with other food crops and cultivated without the use of fertilizers or pesticides.</span></span><span class="EOP SCXW164383082 BCX8" data-ccp-props='{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335559738":240,"335559739":240}'> </span></p> <div class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW164383082 BCX8"> <p class="Paragraph SCXW164383082 BCX8"><span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US" class="TextRun SCXW164383082 BCX8"><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW164383082 BCX8">Here, tradition meets precision. Farmers deliver handpicked cherries to the station, where they’re carefully sorted, weighed, and either paid for on the spot or given a receipt. Coffees are then expertly processed, washed or natural, and dried on raised beds to preserve their vibrant character.</span></span><span class="EOP SCXW164383082 BCX8" data-ccp-props='{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335559738":240,"335559739":240}'> </span></p> </div> <div class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW164383082 BCX8"> <p class="Paragraph SCXW164383082 BCX8"><span data-contrast="auto" lang="EN-US" class="TextRun SCXW164383082 BCX8"><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW164383082 BCX8">Ethiopia holds a legendary place in coffee history, not just as the birthplace of Arabica, but as a culture where coffee is woven into daily life. Unlike many producing countries, coffee here wasn’t introduced through colonisation; it grew wild in forests, was adopted into households, and eventually traded. That deep-rooted relationship with coffee shines through in every cup; floral, complex, and unmistakably Ethiopian.</span></span><span class="EOP SCXW164383082 BCX8" data-ccp-props='{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"335559738":240,"335559739":240}'> </span></p> </div> <!---->
