Gedeb Banko Taratu is nestled in the southern region of Ethiopia, specifically within the Gedeb District of the Gedeo Zone. This area boasts some of the highest coffee-growing altitudes in the country, with elevations ranging from 1,900 to 2,300 meters above sea level.

The local processing station collaborates with over 500 smallholder families who cultivate coffee in Banko Taratu. It offers vital support, including financial assistance, subcontracting opportunities, and premiums for their harvested cherries.

Once the cherries are harvested, they undergo a careful de-pulping process, followed by fermentation for 12 to 48 hours to remove the mucilage. After fermentation, the beans are thoroughly cleaned and dried for about two weeks.

Yirgacheffe is renowned for its exceptionally fruity coffees. At eighthirty, we’ve identified flavor notes of blackberry, lime, and honey.
