ABOUT THIS COFFEE
This lot was produced by the Gubata Farmers’ Group in tandem with Ture Waji and his company, Sookoo Coffee, a high-profile producer and exporter of organic specialty coffee. Hand-harvested cherry cultivated by growers in the Gubata Farmers’ Group is delivered to the Gubata Farm’s washing station located in East Guji, Shakiso woreda. At the mill, cherry is sorted and then spread on raised beds to dry, raked frequently to ensure consistency. The drying cycle completes in 2-3 weeks.
Farming methods in Guji remain largely traditional with most farms organic by default. Few steps are mechanized, even during processing. Coffee is typically intercropped with beans, peas and enset (a wild African banana relative used in porridge and bread). In the past decade, Guji earned recognition as a distinct coffee origin from its neighbors Sidamo and Yirgacheffe. A rugged and steep terrain supported by warm days and cool nights contribute to Guji’s reputation for unique profiles and exceptional quality.
Canada Post has started a National strike. They will not be accepting parcels during this time but will keep any parcels that are on their way safe.
We are still accepting orders and are attempting to ship orders for free over $100*. This is getting more and more difficult as other carriers such as Purolator are no longer accepting more parcels into their system. Please ensure that your home address and not P.O. Box are used in your shipping address. We are currently using UPS and few smaller carriers for our free shipping options. Most locations we have been able to find ways to ship your orders but if this is not the case we will contact you and try to work to find a solution.
If you wish, you can still choose the Canada Post shipping option and we will hold the orders until the strike is finished and ship them at that time.
We are sorry about this inconvenience and appreciate your continued business.
