Bekele Yutute - Ethiopia - Filter - Natural Process

from $26.00

The first time this coffee hit the cupping table we were freaking out like kids that just found the candy stash. To us, this is was a home-run of a find and we look forward to working with this producer again. Fruited and juicy top notes and floral aromatics sit within structured sweetness a decadent body. We have had this as pour overs and espresso and have been impressed with the range and capability of Bekele Yutute. We taste: white plum, flower blossom, and juiciness.

About the Producer:
Bekele Yutute’s brother-in-law manages his farm in Kokose, which was the 5th place winner in the Cup of Excellence in 2021—a lot named after his nephew, Samuel, who manages Bekele’s Kokose drying station. At his farm, he grows primarily 74158, common to the quality-focused farms around Bensa. Like at his other drying station near Dembe—where
he was born into a family of coffee growers—Bekele produces dry processed coffee at his Kokose site, which he purchased in 2019. He used to sell coffee to local suppliers before obtaining his export license in 2021, exclusively producing dry processed coffees (traditional naturals and anaerobics) for export to the U.S. and Korean specialty markets. This is our first import from Bekele Utute.
