Since we began working with Tokuma, we’ve seen both cup quality and consistency rise year after year, along with improved efficiency in getting coffees to port. Mensur continues to be vital to the group’s success and to Osito’s work with single producers in the region.
Jimma was long associated with lower-quality naturals, but that began to change in 2009 when Technoserve partnered with local coops to introduce washed processing and raise standards. In the years since, Jimma has become recognized as one of Ethiopia’s premier coffee regions. Washed coffees, requiring more infrastructure and risk, have typically been the domain of coops and private stations, with small and mid-sized farms focusing on naturals.

A further 1 fact on this page was read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for it.
Taken from the roaster’s own pages, and nothing here has been verified by us or by an independent body. What we store is a passage of page text cut around the fact, so one shown with an ellipsis is a passage we cannot see the start or the end of; only the fully quoted ones are complete sentences.
