ETH-006 — Ethiopia — Elto Elora
Our collaboration with Elto Coffee highlights the remarkable work of Eliyas Dukamo and Atiklit Dejene, a couple based in Sidama-Bensa who have dedicated themselves to showcasing the richness and diversity of Ethiopian terroirs. Their focus on nano-lots, ethical practices, and innovative processing methods makes every harvest a reflection of both precision and respect for the land.
Elto Coffee
Founded in the highlands of Sidama, Elto Coffee works hand-in-hand with local smallholders, selecting and processing micro-lots that express the complexity of Ethiopia’s southern regions. Their approach combines meticulous sorting, full traceability, and a commitment to sustainable agriculture — ensuring that each coffee tells the story of its community as much as its origin.
