Alemayehu Daniel

It’s always good vibes at the roasteries when Ethiopian naturals are starting to come in and we’ve had a pretty strong run of them this year, which is good for everyone. Not that I would know anything about it because I’ve been living in Indonesia for the past year. But I do get the pleasure of writing about them every now and then. This farm, named after the farmer, is very small. Alemayehu and his brother each inherited 10 hectares of farm land from their father Daniel Miju. They run their farms side by side, a real family business. Alemayehu used to sell his cherries through the union, but two years ago he got his own export licence, and we are honoured to buy and taste the coffee they produced.
