For years, Tamiru Tadesse, a former university lecturer and electrical engineer, worked within the coffee sector. He closely observed the struggles of an industry where quality was too often overlooked and producers battled to be fairly compensated.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEverything changed in 2020, when Ethiopia held its first Cup of Excellence. Alongside his wife Messi, Tamiru set himself a clear mission: to prove that Sidama coffees could rival the best in the world. In 2021, against all odds, their very first entry—a lot carefully prepared in their home village of Alo, Bensa—won Ethiopia's Cup of Excellence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eToday, Alo Coffee remains driven by that same ambition: to offer the finest coffees from Ethiopia, challenge expectations, honour the producers who make it all possible, and share the still-untapped potential of Ethiopian coffee with the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PROCESS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Natural process at Alo involves:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e🍒 \u003cstrong\u003eCherry Selection\u003c\/strong\u003e — Careful picking of ripe cherries\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e☀️ \u003cstrong\u003eNatural Drying\u003c\/strong\u003e — Whole cherries dried with fruit intact\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e🌡️ \u003cstrong\u003eLight Roast Profile\u003c\/strong\u003e — Roasted specifically for filter brewing\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e✅ \u003cstrong\u003eQuality Sorting\u003c\/strong\u003e — Careful selection to achieve exceptional cup score\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis meticulous natural process creates the refined and fruity signature with delicate aromas that define this exceptional high-altitude lot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE CUP\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the cup, it reveals a refined and fruity signature, with delicate aromas of blueberry, white grape and dried jasmine.
