Ethiopian Yirgacheffe Natural Process Coffee - Gedeb Worka Sakaro Washing Station, Grade 1 Tasting & Roasting Notes
Details & Notes
- Flavors: Raspberry, Peach, Blueberry
- Body: Delicate
- Acidity: High
- Process: Natural
Roasting Notes
We treat this landrace varietal, a local landrace, as we do most Ethiopian coffees... with an aggressive application of heat throughout the roasting process to account for the denser coffee grown at these higher altitudes. This produces more sugar and acidity which brings out the flavors that natural process Ethiopian coffees are known for and highlights its fruit-forward character with a clean, syrupy body.
Flavor Profile & Tasting Notes
A delicate and complex natural process coffee. Expect high levels of fruity acidity and sweetness with a tea-like clarity to round out the cup experience.
Producer & Station
Worka Sakaro processing station was founded in 2011 by Mijane Woresa. After three decades in coffee, he secured an export license in 2017 and brought his son, Daniel Mijane, into the business. Daniel now manages daily operations across the family’s two private stations (Worka Sakaro and Halo Hartume) and oversees export logistics. The family partners with 410 contributing farmers, whose farms range from 1–10 hectares.
Origin — Gedeb, Gedeo Zone
Gedeb sits on the eastern edge of the famous Gedeo plateau, whose coffees are widely traded under the Yirgacheffe name. Historically more remote and trade-oriented than central Gedeo, Gedeb has grown into a recognizable sub-origin for bright, floral, and refined washed coffees. The district’s high elevations and a long tradition of smallholder expertise contribute to its distinctive crispness and complexity.
Farming & Processing
The Mijane family supports farmers year-round with training and seasonal cherry collection sites to reduce transit time and improve cherry quality. Harvest deliveries are consolidated at collection points and arrive to the station around 6:00 p.m. for final quality inspection.
