Price not usable
Every price we hold for this coffee works out far outside the believable per kilo range for its own market, or repeats unchanged across different bag sizes, so we will not put a figure to it.
No roaster can pay to change a figure or the order of a list; any paid placement is labelled Sponsored.
What da Matteo Roastery says about this coffee
250 grams of whole roasted coffee beans.
The Benti Nenka Coffee Processing Station is located in the village of Benti Nenka, within the Hambella Wamena sub-region of West Guji, Oromia. Founded in 2017, the station operates at an altitude of 2,107 meters above sea level and specialises in natural and anaerobic processing.
Benti Nenka receives cherries from around 500 smallholder farmers, each managing plots between 1.5 to 2 hectares. The area was selected for building this washing station due to its strong potential for coffee production and its central location, which makes it accessible for local farmers to deliver their cherries.
The station is surrounded by active farming communities, and its operations are supported by traditional communal labour systems known as DEBO and DADO, where farmers assist one another in turn as part of a collective work culture.
We submitted this coffee to the semi finals of Nordics Best Roaster competition '26 and we are very happy to share this very beautiful Natural coffee with you!

What the roaster says about where it came from
We report what the roaster publishes and we have not checked any of it independently. A fact nobody publishes is not a fault of the coffee: almost no roaster in the UK states an importer or the price paid to the producer.
How it sits among coffee from Ethiopia
da Matteo Roastery describe this coffee as fruity, citrus, floral. The filled shape is how often roasters use each family across coffee from Ethiopia; the rings on the rim are this coffee’s own.
Every family the roaster names is a common one for coffee from Ethiopia, so this reads as a typical example rather than an outlier.
