Alo Coffee was founded by Tamiru Tadesse in 2020 in pursuit of high quality coffees grown in his hometown. He chose to build his processing station in Alo village, Bensa at approx. 2,400 masl where smallholder farmers can deliver harvested coffee cherries. Tamiru's coffee variety is 74158 which is developed by the Jimma Agricultural Research Center (JARC), and his hard work has paid off as he placed 1st in the Ethiopian Coffee of Excellence in 2021.
This micro-lot is sourced through Tri-up, a green coffee trader established in 2017 that pursuits only high quality beans and offers customized competition lots. The flavors of Alo Bona are quite distinct from a traditional Ethiopian washed. In addition to the signature characteristics such as jasmine florality and delicate citrus notes, there is a crisp overtone of red grapes that adds complexity to the cup. It is a unique and pleasant tasting experience.
