Ethiopia Alo Coffee Natural Mini Filter - Single Origin.

Alo Coffee is owned and operated by Tamiru Tadesse who won 1st place in the 2021 Ethiopian Cup of Excellence. This is a nano lot from his farm in Sidama, Bensa.

In 2020 Tamiru invested in a washing station located in Alo Kebele, an unprecedented risk due to its high elevation above 2400m. Not only does he own his own land, but works with surrounding local farmers in an effort to connect the world coffee market, and further highlight the incredible quality of his home country.

Beyond traditional processes, Tamiru has experimented with many specialised processes which have propelled him to the forefront of specialty coffee in Ethiopia. His coffees have debuted in competitions, on the world stage, and is recognised by many as some of finest coffee that Ethiopia has to offer.

This is a naturally processed lot, fermented and sun-dried slowly on raised beds upon mesh wire. The uniqueness of this high elevation means slower cherry maturation, and Alo’s signature smaller ‘mini’ bean sizes. This coupled with unparalleled processing methodology results in exceptionally vibrant and fruit forward cup profiles.
