Coffee details Origin: Ethiopia Region: Guji Producer: Bette Buna Process: Kickstart Natural Roast style: Developed to highlight sweetness, body and fruit clarity Roasted by Gold Box Roastery. About the coffee This lot comes from Bette Buna's own farm in Guji, where cherries are picked at peak ripeness before being taken to the wet mill. Before traditional natural drying begins, the cherries spend a short period in an oxygen free environment. This is known as the Kickstart process. Unlike a full anaerobic fermentation, this stage is deliberately brief. It gently changes the structure of the sugars within the fruit before drying, creating a coffee with greater sweetness, a fuller body and more intensity, while preserving the classic profile of a natural Ethiopian coffee. The cherries are then dried slowly on raised African beds before resting for several weeks. After milling and multiple rounds of sorting, the coffee is prepared for export. Why we roast it We selected this coffee because it offers something a little different while staying true to its origin. The Kickstart process enhances sweetness and texture rather than dominating the flavour, allowing the quality of the coffee and the character of Guji to remain the focus. It is an innovative coffee that still tastes unmistakably Ethiopian. Brew it your way This coffee is equally at home as filter or espresso. Filter brewing highlights the delicate fruit and floral notes, while espresso brings out the syrupy sweetness and fuller body. Best suited for filter and espresso.
