Ethiopia Benti Nenka Natural

From the Hambela District of Guji, Ethiopia, this lot pools cherries from 500 smallholders and is processed at the Benti Nenka washing station. The natural process begins with 24-hour cold-water fermentation before sun-drying on raised beds—a method that amplifies the fruit-forward character. Expect flavors of grape, berry, and tropical fruit with the complexity that natural processing brings. This is a vibrant, expressive Ethiopian that showcases both terroir and deliberate fermentation technique.
