Ethiopia Mullugeta Muntasha, Natural Walega

This coffee comes from Mullugeta Muntasha's Arbegona station in the Sidama zone, supplied by 600 smallholder outgrowers at 2,230 meters altitude. The Walega variety—a CBD-resistant selection from the 1970s—thrives in Arbegona's favorable micro-climate and is a dominant choice in the region. Natural processing emphasizes the variety's inherent character and complexity. Mullugeta's rapid rise as a producer (opening his first station in 2021, scoring multiple Cup of Excellence lots by 2022) signals quality and ambition; this lot represents consistent work with an importer building a real relationship with the farm.
