Bishan Wate Washing Station, located in the renowned Hambela district of Guji, Ethiopia, is part of Faysel Abdosh's Testi Coffee, a family-owned company connecting local farmers to global specialty markets.
Established in 2017, the station sits at 2000 meters above sea level, processing both washed and natural coffees from over 500 independent outgrowers. The cool temperatures and high elevation lead to denser beans and a sweeter, more complex cup profile.
This year marks our inaugural partnership with Bishan Wate, aligning perfectly with our mission to support ethical and sustainable coffee production. Faysel's dedication to improving smallholder livelihoods and promoting traceability complements our own focus on community investment and environmental responsibility.
