About the Producers
Banko Gotiti is a near-mythical forest in Gedeb’s Kochore woreda, within the Gedeo Zone—a Yirgacheffe origin long idealized by coffee buyers. It borders Guji’s Hambella Wamena, home to other celebrated subregions. For 12 seasons, consistent quality from Gedeb had been elusive—until the Eva washing station in Gotiti changed that. Owned by Biniam and managed by Abenezer, Eva now delivers A+ results.
What makes this coffee stand out
The Gedeo Zone in southern Ethiopia is a legendary coffee origin, renowned as the heart of Yirgacheffe. Here, coffee is grown in lush, forested highlands at elevations between 1,800 and 2,200 meters. Farmers interplant their heirloom varieties with other food crops. This unique agroforestry approach and elevation nurtures exceptional bean density, resulting in washed and natural coffees famous for their floral aroma and a delicate, tea-like body.
I was expecting a very fruit-forward cup, and was pleasantly surprised instead to experience a beautifully balanced and wonderfully complex coffee. For the record, I drink it as espresso, 18g in, 45g out in 40-42 seconds at 94°C.

Top Notch!
Top Notch! These beans were great for pour over and espresso, but I LOVED brewing them in my Areopress!
The profile has a delicate balance of gentle and rich woody notes, light, juicy fruit notes that were both topped off with a hint of something floral. I wish I was better at picking out individual notes, but what I can say is this coffee was the perfect general light roast.

Very good coffee
Very good coffee. The roast is perfect for us and the flavor is what one would expect from an Ethiopian coffee.
