ABOUT ESTATE

Banko Gotiti is a renowned specialty coffee village in southern Ethiopia, located in the heart of the Yirgacheffe coffee region. Smallholder coffee farmers send their harvested coffee cherries to the Huke washing station within the village for processing. Huke, belonging to Testi Coffee and meaning "golden," has five resident employees and 150 to 200 seasonal workers. During the harvest season, approximately 500 smallholders, including those from Banko Gotiti village, transport freshly picked coffee cherries here daily. At Huke, Testi Coffee separates the coffee cherries from each village and processes them as individual batches, ensuring traceability. This particular coffee comes from Banko Gotiti. The coffee cherries are composed of 90% fully ripe, 5% semi-ripe, and 5% overripe. They are soaked in water for flotation and skinning, then fermented for 72 hours at 18.5-20.5°C, with the cold water changed every 24 hours. After fermentation, the coffee is laid out on African-style raised beds and covered with parabolic shade netting to dry for 15 days. During cupping, this coffee offers notes of white floral aromas, a hint of yellow lemon, and fruity flavors of yellow peach.
