The Biru Bekele Washing Station is a cornerstone of coffee production in Odo Shakiso, Guji, within Ethiopia's Oromia region. The station is known for transforming freshly harvested coffee cherries into high-quality beans celebrated worldwide and reflects the area's dedication to exceptional coffee craftsmanship.
Founded in 2019 by Biru Bekele, an experienced coffee grower with over 18 years in the industry, the washing station was created to elevate the region's coffee production. Biru Bekele recognized the distinctive flavours and aromas of the region's coffee and sought to enhance its quality through innovative processing techniques.

The station serves as a hub where local farmers deliver freshly picked coffee cherries for meticulous washed processing.

But now, The Biru Bekele Washing Station is renowned for its dedication to washed and natural processing methods.

By allowing the cherries to dry with the fruit intact, they create a unique, complex flavour profile. Adding to its distinctiveness, the station incorporates Cimma yeast during the fermentation process, enhancing the beans' flavour and creating a signature taste.
Situated at elevations ranging from 1,800 to 2,100 meters above sea level, the station benefits from ideal climatic and soil conditions that contribute to the coffee's exceptional quality. The coffee produced here is celebrated for its vibrant flavours, unique characteristics, and aromatic complexity.
