Some coffees ease you into the day. This one brings the berries and turns the record up.

Dambi Uddo takes its name from the town where this coffee is gathered and processed, in Ethiopia’s Western Guji region. Each lot brings together harvests from hundreds of small farmers, many tending just a few hundred trees. At 1,850–2,200 meters above sea level, coffee grows alongside fruits, vegetables, and everyday food crops. A shared harvest, shaped by many hands.

The natural process keeps the cherry whole as it dries. Workers spread the fruit in thin layers, turn it frequently, and continually remove imperfect cherries. One of coffee’s oldest processing methods, it asks for constant attention—and that care comes through in the cup.

Expect blueberry and blackberry, dark caramelized sweetness, and juicy acidity. Floral aromas rise before the first sip, with hints of clove and fresh mint adding another layer. A soft bittersweet finish rounds it out.

This is your coffee for a morning that needs a little color—or an afternoon worth stepping away for. Put on something you love. Let the cup cool between tracks. There’s plenty to come back to.
