The Art of Dry Processing and Mastery of Details
Ethiopian Shalashleh coffee is prepared using the dry processing method, one of the most complex and artisanal methods in the world of specialty coffee. In this process, the coffee beans are dried inside the whole fruit under the sun for several weeks, allowing them to absorb the natural sugars and aromatic notes within the pulp. The result is a coffee with a concentrated flavor, rich in fruity tones, and a natural, full-bodied sweetness that requires no additives. The careful continuous stirring of the beans during the drying process prevents over-fermentation and preserves the flavor quality, making this type of processing highly skilled and experienced by farmers. This method is one of the secrets to the depth and richness of the 12 Cups Shalashli taste, creating a unique balance between Ethiopian heritage and the innovative spirit of modern roasting.
The Ideal Altitude for a Full Flavor
12 Cups Shalashli coffee is grown between 2,000 and 2,200 meters above sea level, an area considered one of the most unique in Ethiopian coffee cultivation. This high altitude contributes to the slow maturation of the beans, allowing the sugars to accumulate within them and creating more concentrated and balanced flavors. The fertile soil, combined with natural minerals, and the moderate climate that balances the heat of the day with the coolness of the night, give the beans a distinctive character that is not found anywhere else. Every Ethiopian Shalashli bean carries within it a story of rich soil, ideal climate, and the dedication of farmers who know that coffee is not just a crop, but a heritage to be preserved and developed generation after generation. This makes every cup a clear reflection of the history of Ethiopian specialty coffee at its finest.

About the Crop
Ethiopian Shalashli coffee comes from a region that is one of the most prominent producers of high-quality coffee in southern Ethiopia, where the trees are grown in an ideal natural environment surrounded by highlands and dense forests. The farms there are often run by small families who rely on hand-picked farming and traditional production methods passed down through generations to preserve the authentic identity of their crops. The beans are hand-harvested at their peak ripeness to ensure maximum flavor concentration, then dried on raised beds that allow even air circulation around them. They dry slowly, retaining their unique aroma and natural flavors. These meticulous practices reflect the philosophy of production in Ethiopia, where coffee is not viewed merely as a commodity, but as a cultural heritage that reflects humanity's connection to the land and nature.
