Ethiopia Natural Guji Shakisso – Abeyot Boru 1850m

Ethiopia's administrative divisions are organized into four levels, arranged from largest to smallest as Region, Zone, woreda, and kebele. Most raw coffee bean names follow this naming convention. The Guji-Shakisso introduced this time is located southeast of the renowned Yirgacheffe region. Administratively, it belongs to the Oromia Region → Guji Zone → Shakisso woreda, representing a regional origin of raw coffee beans.

Shakisso (sometimes translated as Shakiso) is the most attention-grabbing micro-region within the Guji zone. Geographically positioned southeast of Yirgacheffe, it boasts an average altitude of over 1,800 meters, fertile black soil (Vertisol), and significant day-night temperature differences, providing all the terroir conditions necessary for producing premium specialty coffee.

The raw beans exude an enchanting natural processed fruit aroma, while the dry fragrance presents sweet notes of peach, strawberry, mango, and passion fruit wine.
