Flavours:

Floral and expressive, this Ethiopian coffee from Bensa’s Bombe area opens with fragrant aromatics and bright, candy-like fruit sweetness. The cup is layered and elegant, with soft notes of plum and dried fruit supported by gentle hints of brown sugar and sweet rice. As it cools, the sweetness becomes deeper and more rounded, bringing subtle raisin tones and a smooth, tea-like character. The finish is delicate and calming, reminiscent of chamomile, leaving a clean and lingering impression. 

Social Responsibility:

Tariku Coffee engages in social responsibilities by investing back into their community. Work opportunities are generated for the local citizens, especially women, and social welfare. They employ 20 permanent employees and 600 workers.

Tarku Kare claims to donate part of the earnings to charity by supplying school materials to children from low-income families and offering financial help to the families. Additionally, Tariku offers training at the farm to help farmers achieve great quality coffee in order to incentivise the production of specialty, and they have as well created a platform for local growers to help them retail their products at the national level.

 

Origin:

The Tariku Coffee Farms are located at high altitudes, ranging between 1900 and 2150 meters above sea level, which is a key factor to grow G1 coffee beans. Generally, coffees are grown at 1,900 - 2,200 masl and processed at 1900 - 2100 masl.

Coffee from these areas is commonly known as Sidama Coffee, and it offers distinct and unique cup profiles. Generally, coffees are sweet and balanced, with spicy/winey notes and the right acidity.

Background story:

These coffees have been exported through the private exporter Tariku Kare, which is a new partner of our sister company Tropiq. Tariku Kare Exporters brought us coffee from two different Ethiopian regions, Sidamo and West Arsi, where they also manage their own mill in both locations. Tariku Kare Exporters received recognition from Africa Fine Coffee Association due to the amazing quality coffee they have provided over the years. It is now time for us to enjoy the great results!
