Danche is a washing station in Gedeb, Yirgacheffe, where around 800 local smallholders deliver their cherries. Each farm spans 2-3 hectares and sits at 2,200 MASL. The primary varieties delivered are Kurume and Wolisho. This honey-processed lot, harvested in January 2026 is really lively and expressive. We find that the honey process intensifies the flavors while maintaining a clean cup. We taste notes of concord grape, nectarine, and elderflower. Danche is managed by one of our exporting partners, SNAP. Founded in 2008, SNAP operates seven washing stations in key areas of Ethiopia. Each year, some of our favorite lots are sourced through SNAP. This is our second year with a honey-processed lot from Danche, and we are very pleased to welcome it back. Cherries are collected at peak ripeness. Once floated and sorted, they are depulped, and the seeds undergo dry fermentation for 48-72 hours. The seeds are then dried on raised beds for 10-14 days.
