About This Coffee

Located in the highland village of Chelbesa in Yirgacheffe, the Danche washing station is operated by exporter Snap Coffee and is organic certified. The station sources ripe coffee cherries from around 400 smallholder farmers, whose farms lie at elevations of 1,950 - 2,200 meters above sea level and range between 1-2 hectares in size. The region’s high altitude and cooler climate result in a later harvest season and a longer cherry maturation period, both of which increase the density and quality of the beans, contributing to the region’s distinct flavour profile. All coffee processed at Danche is collected manually and carefully hand-sorted to remove under and overripe cherries
