Ethiopia: Worka Nenke
$24.00Worka Nenke Station is located in Worka Nenke Kebele, in the southern part of Ethiopia. It is managed by Abreham Dori and is dedicated to producing both washed and natural coffees.
Processing starts by purchasing the cherries from the local farmers, and once they reach the Worka Nenke site, they are handpicked and floated. They are then left to soak in water for 8 to 12 hours, afterwards de-pulped, and placed to ferment for an additional 48 to 72 hours before washing. After washing, the coffee is laid to dry on African beds for 8 to 12 days. During this phase, the parchment coffee is regularly moved and rotated to ensure a uniform drying process.
This care has led to a bright, delicate coffee with summery notes of peach and sweet key lime, and a refreshing lemon verbena finish.
