Cherbenta

Nestled in the heart of Ethiopia's Bule region, is part of the renowned YCFCU, a cooperative that began its journey in June 2002. Despite its challenging start amidst a tumultuous history of governmental interference and the subsequent collapse of the primary cooperatives post the Dergue regime, YCFCU has emerged as a beacon of resilience and empowerment for coffee farmers in the Yirgacheffe region.

YCFCU

The Yirgacheffe Coffee Farmers’Cooperatives Union (YCFCU) represents a movement towards economic empowerment and sustainability in the coffee industry. With 28 cooperative unions and over 45,094 farmers, YCFCU supports more than 350,000 family members, transforming the lives of smallholder farmers by providing them with the tools, training, and market access needed to thrive. Amidst fluctuating coffee prices and challenges in reaching international markets, YCFCU stands as a testament to the strength and perseverance of Ethiopian coffee farmers, ensuring their coffee, culture, and communities flourish.

We are roasting with the 7kg Loring roaster in the shop which provides an efficiency and control of the quality, as the automated controls allow us to concentrate on creating the best coffee by releasing green beans from the hopper and precisely controlling the burner.
