Discover the distinct flavors of Ethiopia with coffee from the Buku Sayisa Washing Station, located in the famed West Guji region. This area is celebrated for its certified organic coffee, a rare distinction in Ethiopia where organic farming is common but certification is costly.

At an impressive altitude of 2,300 meters, local farmers deliver ripe coffee cherries to the Buku Sayisa station, where they are carefully sorted and naturally processed. Over 12 to 15 days, the cherries are dried on raised beds, ensuring precise control to prevent overfermentation. The result? A Grade 1 coffee with a beautifully balanced cup profile, boasting notes of juicy blueberry, sweet honeydew, and delicate jasmine honeysuckle.

Buku Sayisa is known for its commitment to traceability, using a voucher system to track each coffee lot through the entire production process. This guarantees transparency and highlights the dedication of the farmers who cultivate these beans.

Rooted in the rich culture of the Oromo people, coffee has held a special place in this region for centuries. Guji farmers continue to use traditional growing methods, preserving the indigenous varieties that thrive in Ethiopia’s fertile soil. These beans are more than just coffee—they are a connection to the land and the legacy of an ancient tradition.

We mainly enjoy this coffee as pour over/drip but it does well in all brew methods.  For pour over, try a 1:16.5 ratio and a kettle temperature of 205°.  

For espresso, a good starting point is: 17 grams in and 42 grams out in 25-33 seconds with a boiler temp of 203°.  Happy Brewing!
