Khalid Shifa, a familiar face at Belco, is the owner of the Sediloya station in the woreda (terroir) of Gera. Together with his brother, Ahmed Abateman. Many farmers from the surrounding area bring their harvest to the Sedi loya station, where the coffee is washed.
After harvesting, the fresh cherries are pulped and then washed to remove any remaining mucilage. This stage is repeated every day throughout the harvesting period.
They offer different batches of this coffee based on the specific harvest day. This one, is from the 21st day of harvest.
After washing, the beans are dried on the station's 140 drying beds, allowing the coffee to dry evenly, for 2 weeks, until it reaches the ideal moisture level for good conservation of the beans.
