Tracon Coffee - White Honey Kurume - Ethiopia
At Worka Chelchele in Ethiopia’s celebrated Gedeo region, the smallholder network behind Tracon Coffee continues to elevate traditional varieties through thoughtful processing and shared innovation. Working with cultivars like Kurume, Dega, and Wolisho, farmers in this area rely on generations of knowledge, meticulous cherry selection, and a deep connection to their land to express the most delicate side of southern Ethiopia. This White Honey lot is part of Tracon’s ongoing commitment to bridging smallholder craft with modern processing, giving roasters a glimpse into the quiet excellence shaping Ethiopia’s next chapter.
This White Honey–processed selection is a romantic, fruit-forward expression of the region. Cherries are depulped with minimal mucilage and dried slowly on raised beds, resulting in a cup that balances sweetness with floral nuance. Expect soft notes of chocolate candy and cake, lifted by bright peach rings and a finish of salted caramel that ties everything together. It’s a profile that feels both comforting and expressive — a gentle introduction to the complexity of Ethiopian honey processes and a testament to the collaborative spirit behind Tracon’s work.
