The station works with roughly 200 registered smallholder farmers from the surrounding kebeles, alongside coffee from its own nearby Buliye farm. Because the site processes only naturals, it isn't tied to a water source — which lets it sit high in the mountains, well above where a typical washing station could operate. Drying here tends to run long, often 3–4 weeks, due to limited direct sun on the raised beds — a slower process that rewards patience with a cleaner, more even dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\" class=\"mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003eProcessing \u0026amp; Quality\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFully dry-processed on raised beds, with cherries left to dry to a deep purple before milling.

Notes of tangerine, blackberry, cantaloupe, and a touch of lychee, finishing with a lightly spiced, fruited aftertaste.
