Description
ETHIOPIA SHAKISO NATURAL
This Shakiso Natural comes from Kayon Mountain Coffee Farm in the Shakiso district in the Guji Zone, about 530 km from Addis Ababa. The farm is owned by families that were born and raised in the area and have 30 years of coffee experience and is located in the shadows of evergreens that provide a multi-canopy structure. The Shakiso regions’ volcanic soil is bursting with nutrients, creating a deep red and brown top-layer of soil. The regions’ high altitude, bi-modal rainfall pattern, and dry weather allow coffee cherries to develop slowly.
Guji is one of the zones of the Oromia Region of Ethiopia. Guji is named after a tribe of the Oromo people. It is bordered on the south by Borena, on the west by the Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples Region, on the north by the Ganale Dorya River which separates it from Bale and on the east by the Somali Region.
