Wolisho

Wolisho is one of the two identified Arabica varieties grown at Suke Quto Farm in Guji. Partners Coffee documents it alongside Kurume in the 2026 washed lot and notes that both remain heterogeneous from plant to plant.

Plant characteristics

At Suke Quto, Wolisho shows meaningful plant-to-plant heterogeneity even though the variety can be identified on the farm.

Tesfaye Bekele reports that Wolisho and Kurume tend to deliver higher quality when grown and harvested together.
