Guji is a beautifully forested area in southern Ethiopia. Before the early 2000's, this region was considered part of Sidama, but has since become its own region. The people of Guji grow coffee gardens at very high altitudes in the rich red soil of the highlands, setting this coffee's profile apart from neighbouring regions. These smallholders deliver their coffee to washing stations to be sorted and processed together, developing flavours of fruits, deep chocolate, and light florals.

 

Danse Mormora is located about 5 kilometers from the town of Haro Lebetu. The variety most commonly called "Bourbon" here is not the same as that type that is better-known in Central and South America: Coffees called "Bourbon" colloquially in Ethiopia are typical coffee-berry-disease-resistant cultivars.
