From the producer

Guduba wet mill is owned and operated by Eyasu Worasa. For the 2025 release, 589 smallholder producers, each typically cultivating 1–2 hectares, delivered cherry to the mill.

From the roaster

Sey Coffee is a Brooklyn-based micro-roastery focused on sourcing and roasting dynamic, complex coffees while fostering long-term relationships throughout the supply chain.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

A clean, fruit-forward washed Guji lot from a wet mill SEY has worked with for several years, documented to the exact 2025 release.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

01
RELATIONSHIPS

Reverified SEY, Ethiopia, Hambela Wamena/Guji, Guduba wet mill, Eyasu Worasa, Ethiopian Landrace, and the washed-process relationship.

02
TRACEABILITY

Documented the 589 smallholder contributors and the 1,925–2,110-meter farm range without inventing individual farm records or a midpoint elevation.

03
PROCESS AND PRICING

Confirmed the January 2025 harvest, 36–48-hour wet fermentation, 10–14-day raised-bed drying, and separated supply-chain prices from retail pricing.

What was added?

Four editorial sections covering mill, operator, contributors, origin, variety, process, cup, and green-coffee prices.

What wasn't added?

No point elevation, individual contributor farms, retail price, roast level, roast date, SCA grade, or independent sentiment score was added.

Why it matters

The page now distinguishes the Guduba processing site and named operator from the 589 contributing smallholder farms while retaining the full elevation range.

What you might taste

SEY reports bergamot-like acidity, ripe peach, star fruit, and melon.
