Boneya Robe tends a two-hectare garden at extreme elevation in Gedeb. SEY fully separated his coffee as a single-producer lot for the first time in 2026 and credits SNAP and the Chorso Bule site with supporting the separation.
Sey Coffee is a Brooklyn-based roastery known for its precision-focused, ultra-light roast style that prioritizes clarity and the natural character of the bean.
A rare, fully separated single-producer Ethiopian lot with unusually specific cherry-selection, elevation, fermentation, and drying documentation.
WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?
Created and connected an exact Boneya Robe producer record from SEY's single-producer disclosure.
Replaced the thin 2,000-meter description with the documented 2,450-meter lot and its 12-hour in-cherry, 12-hour dry, and 12-hour wet fermentation sequence.
Added three exact-release community tastings as qualitative, limited-evidence sentiment without converting them into a numeric rating.
Verified Gedeb/Gedeo region, Chorso Bule site, Boneya Robe producer, Ethiopian Landraces, washed process, elevation, harvest, fermentation, drying, price, availability, notes, and exact-source sentiment.
No roast level, numeric public sentiment score, or original tasting score was added. Retailer descriptions, catalog summaries, and roaster-controlled notes were excluded from independent sentiment.
The page now reflects the coffee's unusually precise single-producer traceability and does not conflate Boneya's lot with other Chorso Bule releases.
SEY lists ripe peach, watermelon, and sweet tea. Independent tasters also described white florals, white peach, black tea, a cool watermelon character, and a light cup with restrained acidity.

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.
