Alemayehu Sali along with his brother have been working in the Siko village perfecting their craft of producing distinctive washed and naturally dried coffees for over 7 years. Their washing station is considered the first in the area, and it was built at a time when the focus of buyers was predominantly in nearby Yirgacheffe. A huge credit to their pioneering work, Uraga has been delivering beauties this last few years and is now beloved of specialty coffee buyers the world over. The combination of high altitude, fertile soil, plentiful rainfall as well as expert processing knowledge have yielded outstanding results. Around 560 farmers contribute cherry to the station, from young and vigourous trees of Dega and Kurume variety.

This lot is a fully washed coffee with approximately 36-48 hours of fermentation time. It is then soaked for 4 hours before being carefully dried on African drying beds. Stunning clarity and a juicy acidity are the result.
