Producers in the Bombe region live in the lush and elevated valley of the Bombe mountain, surrounded by stunning landscapes. Bombe coffees are known for their density and rich flavour profiles. They often contain a higher proportion of smaller screen sizes, primarily 14 and 15, setting them apart from those from Shantawene and Keramo. Bombe coffees also feature a slightly higher percentage of the Mikicho variety, recognizable by its larger cherries, distinctive wavy leaves, and elongated, canoe-shaped seeds. Mikicho, closely related to the famous Gesha variety, contributes to the Bombe coffees' renowned tropical fruit notes and delicate floral undertones, which are apparent in every cup.
