The Sewda site is located just outside of the Shakiso town and has NOP and EU Organic certifications. Sewda was set up to process and dry naturals (fruit-dried) coffees.
The blend from the Sewda site consists of 85% well-ripe, 10% reddish-ripe and 5% over-ripe cherries. The improved natural processing that is done here is unique in that cherries are soaked in fresh water for 12 hours before laying out to dry. This soaking enables floaters to be removed and “helps to initiate the sugar reaction inside the cherry” resulting in a honey-like sweetness.
After the soaking process, cherries are laid on raised beds with a thickness of 5cm where they are monitored and turned frequently each day. The raised beds are strategically located in an area that receives little sunlight and high winds which blow through and create an even drying that takes only around 15 days to complete.
Roaster: Broadcast Coffee in Seattle Washington.
Recommended brew method: V60 | Chemex | Autodrip | Aeropress
