FARM: Batu Kobo

BEHIND THE PRODUCTION
Batu Kobo, nestled in the highlands of Ethiopia's Oromia Region, is a thriving coffee-growing community where smallholder farmers are deeply committed to producing exceptional coffee. Cultivated at altitudes between 1,900 and 2,100 meters, this coffee benefits from nutrient-rich volcanic soils, high elevations, and Ethiopia’s diverse microclimates, which contribute to its distinct flavor complexity.

The natural process used for this coffee showcases the farmers’ skill and attention to detail. Ripe cherries are handpicked and meticulously sorted to remove any defects. They are then dried in their whole fruit on raised beds for 15–20 days. This slow and careful drying process allows the beans to absorb the natural sugars from the cherries, resulting in the coffee’s signature syrupy sweetness and vibrant fruit-forward character.
LOCATION
Batu Kobo is located in the Oromia Region, an area celebrated for producing some of Ethiopia's most sought-after coffees. At altitudes ranging from 1,900 to 2,100 meters, the cool temperatures extend the ripening process of coffee cherries, allowing them to develop complex sugars and flavors.

This coffee is a reflection of its unique terroir, which combines high elevations, fertile soils, and a temperate climate to produce beans with extraordinary quality. Batu Kobo is also notable for its strong commitment to traditional coffee-growing methods, ensuring sustainability and excellence in every harvest.

The natural process for Batu Kobo Gr1 begins with handpicking only the ripest cherries. These cherries are carefully sorted to ensure only the best fruit moves forward in the process. Once sorted, the cherries are spread out on raised drying beds, where they dry under the sun for 15–20 days. During this time, the cherries are turned regularly to ensure even drying and prevent over-fermentation or mold development.

This method allows the beans to absorb the sugars from the fruit, enhancing the coffee’s natural sweetness and fruity characteristics. The result is a cup that is rich, complex, and bursting with vibrant berry and citrus notes—a true testament to the skill and dedication of the Batu Kobo coffee producers.
