This year's selection stays on the vivid, high-toned side of the profiles Gedeb reliably delivers. In the cup: nectarine, tart plum, and lemongrass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PRODUCER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorasa Mijane and his son Daniel are both natives of Gedeb in the southern Yirgacheffe zone. Worasa began processing coffee in the early 2000s at his first washing station in Worka Sakaro, and in 2013, he and Daniel established a second station in the Halo Hartume sub-region a few kilometres to the west. The two sites now form a complementary family operation that has become one of SEY's most consistent and trusted Ethiopian partnerships.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGedeb is the southernmost woreda of the Yirgacheffe region, and coffees from this area have developed a distinct identity alongside the broader Yirgacheffe reputation. Yirgacheffe is widely credited with introducing the world to the floral and citric profiles of washed Ethiopian coffee — it was here that the washed process first gained global recognition, and the town quickly became synonymous with some of the most iconic flavour profiles in specialty coffee. Halo Hartume, at 1,900–2,210 MASL across its farm range, represents the high-altitude end of this celebrated growing landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEthiopia's extraordinary biodiversity — with DNA testing confirming over 60 distinct varieties — means most coffees are blends of many co-existing heirloom cultivars, referred to collectively as Ethiopian Landrace. In Gedeb, this diversity expresses itself with the crisp, citrus-forward, and florally complex character that has come to define the best lots from this sub-region.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PROCESS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Washed process at Halo Hartume involves:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🍒 Hand-picking — Cherries picked at peak ripeness before delivery to the station 💧 Underwater fermentation — Beans fermented fully submerged in water for 24–48 hours ☀️ Raised-bed drying — Dried on raised beds for 10–14 days\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe underwater fermentation is the defining step — fully submerging the beans throughout the fermentation period creates a consistent, controlled environment that builds the clean nectarine brightness, tart plum acidity, and lemongrass herbal freshness that define this year's bright, crisp Halo Hartume selection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE CUP\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA bright, crisp, and beautifully clean washed Ethiopian from one of Gedeb's most trusted and consistently excellent family stations — nectarine brightness, tart plum acidity, and a fresh lemongrass character in a light, vivid cup that speaks clearly of the altitude and the Yirgacheffe washed tradition it represents.
