Beshasha

Mustefa Abakeno is a producer and exporter who farms 18 hectares of coffee in Beshasha, in western Ethiopia's Jimma Zone, at an elevation of 2,040 MASL. This washed lot is made up of the Ethiopian varieties 74110 and 74112, varieties developed by the Jimma Agricultural Research Centre following extensive research into Ethiopian coffee genetics. They are now widely planted across western Ethiopia for their combination of excellent cup quality and resistance to coffee berry disease. In the cup, expect notes of apricot, tropical fruit and florals.
