The Sike Bokossa community grows this coffee in Guji. The official source does not name individual contributors and states that the community has no washing station.
Sey Coffee is a Brooklyn-based micro-roastery that focuses on sourcing high-quality, complex coffees while minimizing the influence of the roast on the final flavor profile.
This was the first Sike Bokossa coffee separated and exported as an individual lot, requiring precise processing at Halo Hartume.

In the database. Not tasted. Not scored.
This coffee is in our database because we can reliably document it — but we haven't tasted and scored it yet, and we never publish a score we haven't earned.
Outside reviews and internet discussion — is kept clearly separate from our own review. When we taste it, our full review appears here.
