Single Origin


It’s no secret, we love to carefully blend coffees (our name is a bit of a giveaway). But even we have to admit, many specialty-grade coffees are just so tasty and vibrant, there is no need to mess with these gems.

Our current Single Origin is from Damo, Ethiopia. This lot is processed using the natural method and delivers notes of peach, cranberry, and black tea, creating a stunningly sweet and juicy coffee with a floral jasmine finish!


Trust us, this is one you are not going to want to miss!

Nestled on the fertile slopes of the towering Shanta Golba mountain in the heart of Ethiopia's renowned coffee region, Sidamo, the Damo Station was founded with the goal of processing the highest quality lots from the area. 

 

For generations, the local Sidama people have cultivated these verdant hills, producing complex coffees acclaimed for their bright, fruity notes and syrupy body.

 

The Damo Station works closely with local farmers, providing a reliable market for their harvest. During the labour-intensive coffee picking seasons from December to February, the station employs over 100 people, bringing much-needed income to the community. They pay farmers 20-30% above average prices, recognising the value of their hard work and premium coffee cherries.

 

Following traditional practices, the coffee is grown organically under the shade of native trees that forego hand pruning to guarantee the right amount of shading to slow down the coffee growing and maximise the productivity, farmers and local workers pick and sort only perfectly ripe red cherries.

 

The Damo Station's excellent coffee and ethical production practices showcase how Ethiopia's smallholder farmers can produce specialty coffee sustainably, improving lives in the community for generations to come. Each cup shares the unique terroir of this region through its complex flavours and story.

 

We have roasted this coffee to accentuate its best features, and to preserve the coffee's natural sweetness.

 

Balanced, juicy and elegant - this coffee is a great option for any adventurous palate.
