A note from the Importer Apex:
Located in the Gedeo zone of the Gedeb district, Worka Danche is one of the finest coffee producing areas within the famous Gedeb Woreda. Known for its dense layered semi forest vetation structure encompassing banana trees as well as shade grown coffee trees, Danche is a great example of best coffee growing acro ecology.
SNAP Specialty Coffee built their new wet mill in 2019 in a small hamlet called Chelbesa with in the Danche Village with the hope of reaching out to purchasing exclusively red cherries from the nearby farmers in Danche Village.
Their ambition became a reality after completion of the project. The fermentation tanks of the wet mill were built out of ceramic which will help bring clarity in the coffee that they process as well as help fasten the fermentation through heat inside the ceramic.
