Tadesse is a third generation coffee grower. To him, coffee is life, and he believes in extending this life that coffee gives. He worked hard to build up his farms and washing stations so he could provide employment, and build roads and schools for people in his community.
 
This is the third year we are bringing in the Anasora Natural. Its character and tasting notes include a ripe, sweet citrus - Clementine, a deep red fruit Pomegranate, and floral note of Hibiscus. This was the coffee Kitty presented in her first-ever barista competition. This coffee has a special place in our heart, as it will always remind us of our purpose in the specialty coffee industry, and gives us motivation and courage to pursue this passion. If by serving what we love can give someone energy and hope, then this is already the best reward.
