This coffee comes from Banko Chelchele village in Gedeb Woreda, Gedeo Zone, Southern Ethiopia. The producing area is part of the wider Yirgacheffe coffee-growing region and is located within the Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples’ Region of Ethiopia. The coffee is grown at an altitude of approximately 1,900 to 2,300 meters above sea level.
