About SNAP Coffee:This coffee lot is brought to you by SNAP Coffee, a producing partner of Coffee Quest, which operates 7 washing stations in key coffee-producing areas like Sidama, Yirgacheffe, and the Guji Zone. SNAP focuses its operation on three fundamental pillars – Consistency, Education, and Sustainability. It is within their purpose to improve the livelihood of supporting farmers, and last year their team of agronomists trained more than 6,000 farmers in land and nursery management, and climate-smart agriculture through crop diversification and intercropping.Chelbesa One Washing Station:
The approximately 1,000 farmers that deliver cherry to this washing station, come from the region and have between 2 and 3 hectares of land. This lot consists of the Ethiopian Heirloom varieties Korume and Wolisho.
Once the cherries arrive at the Chelbesa One Washing Station, they are placed in water for sorting. The cherries are then de-pulped and left to dry ferment in tanks for 2-3 days, to be later washed and placed to dry on raised beds. To ensure an even drying, the parchment is constantly moved each day, taking 7-10 days, depending on the weather, until reaching a desired moisture content.
