Cup Characteristics: Like an old friend, no matter how long it has been, Worka reappears and the same magic is there. Effervescent like a key lime soda, this season’s version brings the classic berry foundation and molasses body. However, the amazing clarity and citrus flavors may remind you very much of the best Geishas.

Sourcing information: Our Worka is grown in Southern Ethiopia in the Gedeo District and milled at the Worka Cooperative. This cooperative, which was established in 2005, has 305 members that together, farm a production area of 763 hectares. This dry-processed selection is clean and well-sorted to deliver a consistent and remarkable cup which was aided by the GrainPro it was shipped in. This remarkable one-way permeable barrier aides the potentially long journey from the trees it was harvested from, through the congested shipping yard at Djibouti, and the boat ride here.
