Driven by a belief that great coffee should never be overlooked, they set out to challenge a system that undervalued both quality and the farmers behind it. In 2021, their very first lot from the village of Alo won Ethiopia's Cup of Excellence—a historic victory that proved what passion and precision could achieve, and opened new possibilities for an entire community of growers. Today, Alo Coffee carries that same energy forward. With farmers at the centre, a focus on meticulous processing, and a deep respect for Sidama's terroirs, Alo Coffee is not only showcasing some of Ethiopia's most exciting coffees, it is reshaping what Ethiopian coffee can mean to the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr class=\"border-border-200 border-t-0.5 my-3 mx-1.5\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PROCESS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThis lot undergoes hybrid washed processing—a technique that combines whole cherry fermentation with traditional washing:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e🍒 \u003cstrong\u003eHarvested\u003c\/strong\u003e — Ripe cherries at peak quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e🫙 \u003cstrong\u003eWhole Cherry Fermentation\u003c\/strong\u003e — 72 hours in tanks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e🔪 \u003cstrong\u003eDe-Pulped\u003c\/strong\u003e — Skin removed after fermentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e🚿 \u003cstrong\u003eImmediately Washed\u003c\/strong\u003e — Mechanical washer removes mucilage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e☀️ \u003cstrong\u003eAfrican Raised Beds\u003c\/strong\u003e — Approximately 12 days drying\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e🔄 \u003cstrong\u003eHourly Turning\u003c\/strong\u003e — Ensures even drying and prevents over-fermentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e🌤️ \u003cstrong\u003eShade Protection\u003c\/strong\u003e — Beds covered daily between 12:00 pm and 3:00 pm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e📊 \u003cstrong\u003eFinal Moisture\u003c\/strong\u003e — 11%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e📦 \u003cstrong\u003eWarehouse Rest\u003c\/strong\u003e — Flavour stabilisation before milling and export\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe 72-hour whole cherry fermentation develops structure and body before de-pulping, creating a unique cup profile that bridges natural and washed characteristics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr class=\"border-border-200 border-t-0.5 my-3 mx-1.5\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE CUP\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eFresh and floral with nectarine sweetness, black tea elegance, jasmine aromatics, and bright lemon acidity.
