About product
A microlot from the Dukamo farm with a pronounced fruity profile. Expect notes of mandarin, kiwi, raspberry, red apple, and makaru, complemented by cane sugar sweetness and a subtle black tea finish. The apple-citrus acidity is medium, supported by a creamy, smooth body. The story of the Dukamo family began with two brothers — Asefa and Mulugeta — from the Bensa–Sidama area. Since childhood, they helped their parents and neighbors grow coffee, driven by a strong desire to showcase the potential of their region’s coffees to the world. More than 15 years later, their family business has become a key player in producing, processing, and exporting Sidama coffees. Today, the family manages 3 farms, 42 washing stations, 6 dry mills, and works with over 2,500 farmers, all following sustainable cultivation practices. Our coffee comes from the Daye Bensa farm and the Shantawene washing station, located 10 km from Daye and surrounded by natural forests and trees over 200 years old. The coffee grows under natural shade at 2100–2210 masl, and the work is carried out by local residents under the supervision of the Dukamo family.

Story
The history of the Dukamo plantation begins in the Bensa–Sidama region of Ethiopia, where two brothers — Asefa and Mulugeta Dukamo — grew up helping their parents and neighbors cultivate coffee. Over the years, driven by their ambition to showcase the potential of coffees from their region and country, they expanded their family’s coffee production. After more than 15 years, the Dukamo family has built one of the most influential coffee enterprises in Sidama. They now manage 3 farms, 42 washing stations, and 6 dry mills, working with over 2,500 farmers who follow good agricultural practices and support sustainable development. The microlots used in your coffee come from the Daye Bensa farm and the Shantawene washing station, located about 10 km from the town of Daye. These areas are surrounded by natural forests and native trees over 200 years old. Coffee grows under natural shade at altitudes of 2100–2210 masl, with farm work carried out by local residents under the supervision of the Dukamo family.
