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.
We take no commission and no payment for placement.
What Quo Coffee says about this coffee
This is the second year we've worked with Aman, and we're proud to feature this Natural processed compilation of native heirloom and JARC varietals.
Aman Adinew founded Metad in 2010, and coffee production began three years later. His brother, Tariku Adinew, joined the company shortly afterward. In Hambela, Metad owns a 200-hectare farm located in the Hambela Wamena woreda, specifically in the Alaka and Bishan Fugu kebeles.
The farming system used on these plots follows Ethiopia’s well-known semi-forest model. The landscape is rich in natural forest, with native climax tree species still present, such as qararo (Aningeria adolfi-friederici). The farm is organized into plots, and each plot is planted with a single coffee variety. The varieties grown include: 75227, 74112, 74110, and 74140. The farm is organically managed, with all coffee cherries harvested by hand. Drying is done on traditional African raised beds. The high altitude (over 2,000 meters) and the orientation of the wet mill allow for optimal drying conditions, typically taking three to four weeks.

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.
