Shakisso: A Unique Coffee Region

Shakisso stands unique in the Guji area of Sidamo, a region far removed from most coffee-producing areas in Sidamo province. Another notable local industry is gold mining, with labor, land, and ethnic factors causing instability in this producing region. However, the coffee from this area is quite exceptional, with Ninety Plus' legendary bean Nekisse also originating from this region.

Nectar, meaning the nectar of Shakisso flowers—searching the Coffee Review website with "Guji" as a keyword yields over ten reviews scoring above 92 points, with several high scores of 94 and 95 points.

Shakisso, located in Guji, southern Oromia region, borders Sidama and Gedeo. This area has many mining pits, originally used for gold mining, leaving numerous holes in the coffee-growing areas. This creates dangerous conditions when walking between coffee plantations. Shakisso is a unique producing area in Guji/Sidamo, even within Sidamo it's a remote region far from most coffee origins, while another famous local product is gold mining. Miners, land, and ethnic factors also caused instability in the region in 2006. Therefore, the biggest problem facing this area now is the need for manpower to maintain the growing areas and harvest coffee. Local small farmers here began growing organic coffee in 2001 and work closely with medium-sized coffee producers because they understand how to grow forest coffee in highland areas.

Cupping Notes

[Dry Aroma] Sweet cherry, raisin, preserved fruit, preserved plum, dried pineapple, strawberry.

[Wet Aroma] Cherry, cranberry, sweet orange, plum, blueberry, honey peach, lychee.

[Slurping] Entry is like sweet and juicy honey peach, with sweet pineapple acidity. The mid-section reveals intense aromas of cranberry, blueberry, strawberry, pineapple, and dried fruit filling the palate, with lychee and plum flavors in the finish, and dried fruit-like viscosity. The entire cup is like a tropical fruit storm assault—elegant yet dominant, falling into an ocean of nectar as its name suggests.
