COF-ST-0309Bogalech Dukkale is a 45-year-old producer who manages a four-hectare farm in Sukke Qutto, inherited from her parents. For the past four years, her coffee has been separated into distinct micro-lots rather than being blended into community lots, thanks to a partnership between the importer Osito and Ture Waji of Sookoo Coffee. This lot features the Gibirinna 74110 variety—a compact, small-bean selection from the Jimma Agricultural Research Centre (JARC) known for its resistance to coffee berry disease. Grown at high altitudes in the volcanic soil of Guji, the cherries were dried on raised beds for 21–28 days in thin layers. This slow, careful drying process results in a sweet and fruit-forward cup, highlighted by notes of strawberry and juicy stone fruit with a lingering honey sweetness
