Gidaamii

About

This Gidaamii coffee, named after the terroir where it is produced, is harvested on the slopes of the Kuri mountain. This mountain, which rises to an altitude of 2,400 m, is located in the Wallagga region, in the west of Ethiopia, a few kilometers from the border with Sudan. This terroir is marked by a great wealth of plants and dense forests where endemic species are still maintained. The culture of coffee, under these tree-covered canopies, is here traditional and perpetuated for several centuries. The increase in international demand has brought more importance to coffee growing, which is today an essential part of the regional economy. Ethiopian farmers maintain ancient agricultural know-how where coffee is integrated into polyculture systems, under shade and according to organic farming. Gidaamii coffee, from Kuri mountain, is produced by Habtamu Fekadu Aga whose grandfather had started growing coffee on this fertile land in 1945. Habtamu represents the third generation of coffee growers in his family. He produces coffee on more than 100 hectares in the village of Kuri. He completes his own plots with those of two neighboring peasants and friends: Zerihun Hora and Baca Ofgea, who each cultivate an additional 20 hectares. Habtamu Fekadu Aga, passionate about his profession, takes on the mission of offering beautiful cups, flagships of his native region, produced with the aim of maintaining the sustainable practices of farmers in Wallagga.
