ABOUT THE COFFEE and REGION:

The "Wush Wush" variety originated in the Ethiopian town of "Wushwush" (or "Wishwish" if you're looking at Google maps!), not far from the Bonga forest in Jimma. Known for delicate cup flavors, Wush Wush was propagated by farmers in that region, and eventually made its way to South America in the early '90s.

The coffee comes from farmer Edward Sandoval, in Tolima, who's been a source of several different "exotic" varieties the last few years, including Moka, Gesha, and Chiroso.

Edward's farm is small, just 3 hectares, and stretches up to about 1850 meters above sea level. We'll have a Chiroso variety from Edward later this year.
