From the renowned coffee-growing region of Gedeb in Ethiopia's Gedeo Zone, Banko Chelchele Coffee offers an exceptional experience, showcasing the rich heritage of this coffee-producing community. Nestled at a high altitude in the Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples' Region (SNNPR), the unique climate and fertile soil of Chelchele provide the perfect conditions for growing premium coffee beans.
This community-driven production is deeply tied to the cultural fabric of the Chelchele people. Coffee is more than a crop here—it’s a symbol of unity, where families come together during the harvest season to hand-pick only the ripest cherries. The meticulous care in cultivation and traditional sun-drying methods enhance the coffee’s quality, with generations of expertise passed down within the community.
Banko Chelchele stands out for its innovative anaerobic processing method, which uses cold, oxygen-free fermentation to carefully control sugar levels, temperature, and pressure. This process ensures the beans develop vibrant, complex flavors.
With flavor notes of ripe fruit, florals, and a sweet, balanced finish, Banko Chelchele offers a sensory journey that highlights the skill and dedication of the farmers. Experience a coffee that’s not only delicious but deeply connected to the rich traditions of its origin.
