Coffee production in Ethiopia is a longstanding tradition which dates back dozens of centuries. Ethiopia is where Coffea arabica, the coffee plant, originates. The plant is now grown in various parts of the world; Ethiopia itself accounts for around 3% of the global coffee market. The world's oldest coffee, Ethiopia Sidamo is famous for its distinctive wild and tangy aroma, and subtle chocolaty undertones. The natural processing of this Sidamo enhances the fruity and floral notes of this coffee.

This coffee is sourced from family-owned farms of the Shanta Golba Cooperative, which is located in the Bensa district. The Shanta Golba Cooperative is part of the Sidamo Coffee Farmers Cooperative Union (or SCFCU). SCFCU was formed in 2001 with a mission to support sustainable coffee production from cooperatives in the Sidamo region. SCFCU is made up of more than forty five cooperatives with more than 80,000 producers.
