This is a research profile, not an independently conducted farm visit. Producer and coffee relationships are shown only when the records agree. Check the research sources below for supporting evidence.
The story
Established in 2001, the Adorsi washing station was later acquired and restored by Testi Specialty Coffee in 2018. It is one of twenty stations owned and managed by the family-owned company founded by Faysel A. Yonis. The station serves as a central hub for hundreds of smallholder farmers in the Aricha kebele of the Yirgacheffe district.
Challenges
The station aggregates cherry from many surrounding smallholders; the exact release page does not publish a contributor count.
Innovations
Release-specific methods vary. Klatch’s Konga Qawissa lot used tank fermentation and 21 days of shade-netted raised-bed drying; Verve’s archived washed lot used 36–48 hours of fermentation and 7–11 days of raised-bed drying.
Published coffees linked to this farm
For blends, a farm may be named for one documented component without growing the entire coffee. These catalog relationships do not independently verify every lot, harvest or producer. See individual coffee profiles for traceability evidence.
