The company operates three washing and processing stations in Gedeo, Kochere, and Chelelektu. Danche sits on a hillside at high altitude and sources from about 650 smallholders across Kubi, Sisota, and Sike, less than half the volume of its sister station, Chelbesa. The area's dense semi-forest vegetation gives ideal shade-grown conditions, contributing to a unique flavour. Quality is continually improved through careful washed and natural processing and special experimental batches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEthiopian Landrace refers to a plant population that has developed and adapted to its specific local environment over a long time, typically without human intervention, through natural selection and accumulated genetic diversity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PROCESS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHand-picked and sorted red cherries are pulped, then soaked in fermentation tanks for 72 hours.
