Notes
Raspberry, Strawberry, Sweet Juicy, Cheesecake
The Halo Hartume natural exudes vibrant raspberry and strawberry notes, embodying the expected fruit-forward profile of a naturally processed Ethiopian coffee. Delicate mandarin-like sweetness adds a unique touch, thanks to meticulous processing at the Halo Hartume mill, ensuring an evenly dried coffee for a consistently clean cup.
Private processors like Halo Hartume are a thing to behold. It’s a tough business being a private processor in Gedeb, as the sheer density of competition among washing stations tends to push cherry prices as high as double throughout a single harvest, and privates often don’t have the backing of a larger union to secure financing, regulate cherry prices, or bring export costs down with centralized milling and marketing. Successful private washing stations like the Mystic cup stories then, need to be not only standout quality processors to stay afloat; they must also be excellent business developers with connections and community standing, in order to continue winning the business of farmers and buyers alike, and stay afloat for the long term.
