Unlike almost all other producers in Ethiopia, Telila lots are built based on cherry delivered on a given day. Mike and his team are meticulous with their quality control, even storing their parchment coffee in sealed bags – a first for Ethiopia that required governmental approval!

And, for every kg of coffee purchased from Telila, a 20p donation to the Kacho Tulla Primary School in the village of Kecho Anderacha has been made.

This is a beautifully complex and floral coffee, one we just can’t get enough of at our roastery!

If you can, we recommend resting the coffee for 2 weeks to begin experiencing it in its fullness. But we understand if you just can’t wait…
