He's the computer-guru-turned-coffee-producer who has been making all kinds of waves throughout the specialty coffee community in Ethiopia for nearly two decades. Prior to 2008, Negusse was known as \"the computer guy\" in his hometown of Addis Ababa, where he ran a successful computer parts import company. While in America on a business trip, he tasted a pourover at a café in Minnesota that changed the trajectory of his career—and the object of his entrepreneurial spirit.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEstablished in 2008, Negusse's new endeavor, SNAP Specialty Coffee, seeks to provide specialty Ethiopian coffees processed consistently and exceptionally. They run or partner with several washing and processing stations throughout Ethiopia, including the two Worka Chelbesa washing stations in Gedeb. Today's release hails from Wate Danche, the second iteration of Worka Chelbessa and the site of some really remarkable achievements in Ethiopian processing methods.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTRUST THE PROCESS | \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe honey process involves pulping coffee cherry in a way that removes the outer skin of the fruit, yet preserves most of the fruit mucilage around the seed. The coffee is left to ferment in this fruit, which turns dark and sticky as it breaks down. It’s this goopy appearance that gives it the name “honey” for its visual similarity. After fermentation, the coffee is washed clean with water and dried to an optimal moisture level.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTAKE A SIP |\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAt first blush, you might think this coffee is washed. It’s very floral and super sweet, but as you taste closely, you may notice it has a more fruited character that derives from the honey processing. Instead of the classic lemon, honey, and black tea that we expect from washed coffees out of Gedeo, we’re experiencing white flowers, complemented by tropical fruits like mango \u0026amp; pineapple. Peach emerges, and the classic black tea note prevails.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin | \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGedeb, Gedeo, Ethiopia\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer |\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSNAP Specialty Coffees\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWashing Station | \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWate Danche\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProcess |\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRed Honey\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVariety | \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEthiopian landrace varieties\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb id=\"docs-internal-guid-27a1fae1-7fff-780c-48fc-9c1418f1a4cc\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eElevation | \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e2200 MASL\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Black \u0026 White Coffee Roasters","offers":[{"title":"12oz","offer_id":51382161539385,"sku":null,"price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"2lb","offer_id":51382161572153,"sku":null,"price":68.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"5lb","offer_id":51382161604921,"sku":null,"price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2988\/2574\/files\/Danche_redHoney_onlinecard_4x_3a5cb27d-4e95-48b7-8713-91829d876db2.png?v=1764705307","url":"https:\/\/www.blackwhiteroasters.mom\/products\/r-danche-red-honey","provider":"Black \u0026 White Coffee Roasters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
