This is our last coffee from 2024’s Crop to Cup and Ethiopia. We connected with Danny and the Ben last year on their trip through Indianapolis, and followed the harvest through their eyes and those of Christopher Feran. We are extremely excited and happy to bring you coffee from Bekele Yutute, we look forward to continuing this relationship and supporting the Crop to Cup project in Ethiopia.

Bekele Utute’s brother-in-law manages his farm in Kokose, which was the 5th place winner in the Cup of Excellence in 2021—a lot named after his nephew, Samuel, who manages Bekele’s Kokose drying station. At his farm, he grows primarily 74158, common to the quality-focused farms around Bensa. Like at his other drying station near Dembe—where he was born into a family of coffee growers—Bekele produces dry processed coffee at his Kokose site, which he purchased in 2019. He used to sell coffee to local suppliers before obtaining his export license in 2021, exclusively producing dry processed coffees (traditional naturals and anaerobics) for export to the U.S. and Korean specialty markets. This is our first import from Bekele Utute.
