Established in 2023 at approximately 2,150 to 2,200 metres above sea level, the site is now the largest dedicated drying facility in Gedeb. Coffee is cultivated naturally beneath native shade trees, particularly Ensete, also known as false banana, which contributes to the area’s cool and protected growing environment.\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eEphtah works closely with surrounding farming communities to build transparent, sustainable, and collaborative supply chains. Farmers receive full payment when their cherries are delivered, while additional initiatives, including a local daycare centre and the Ama Commitment programme, support farming families and strengthen the role of women throughout the coffee-producing community.\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCOFFEE | PROCESSING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eOnly carefully selected, fully ripe cherries from nearby farmers are used for this Black Honey lot. After delivery, the cherries are floated to remove lower-density fruit and ensure greater uniformity. They are then rested on raised drying beds for one day before pulping, encouraging a greater concentration of mucilage around the beans.\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFollowing pulping, the coffee is slowly dried beneath shade for approximately 25 days, allowing the remaining fruit sugars to develop gradually while preserving clarity and structure. Composed of 74110, 74112, and local heirloom varieties, this high-altitude lot offers a vibrant and expressive cup with layered stone-fruit sweetness, wine-like complexity, floral aromatics, and a rich, lingering finish.\u003c\/h5\u003e","brand":"Sip Collective Coffee","offers":[{"title":"100g","offer_id":58081024770431,"sku":null,"price":10.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"200g","offer_id":58081024803199,"sku":null,"price":17.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg","offer_id":58081024835967,"sku":null,"price":65.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/2961\/2927\/files\/LALESA_1.png?v=1785409151","url":"https:\/\/sipcoffee.co\/products\/ethiopia-black-honey-71100-74112-heriloom","provider":"Sip Collective Coffee","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
