ABOUT
Habtamu Fekadu is a young coffee trader based out of Addis Ababa. Although hailing from a family of generational coffee producers, Habtamu spent some of his formative years working as a bank manager for the Oromia coffee cooperative. He returned to the coffee business with his grandfather in 2015 and now exports coffee from several areas within Ethiopia.
Earlier this year, our head roaster, Ryan, was lucky enough to meet Habtamu at the formidable Horizon mill and hand-select the bags of coffee to purchase.
A goal for our sourcing team this year was to find a new producer to work with to add some profile variation to our Ethiopian selections. On our quest for something new, we stumbled upon something from the past. Having not purchased a lot from Yirgacheffe since 2020, this coffee provided a welcome and refreshing change on the cupping table. Take a trip to the cupping tables of mid/late 2010s with this lot. It is an absolute pleasure to roast and drink.
