The landscape is characterized by dense, semi-forested vegetation where coffee grows beneath a layered canopy alongside enset and other crops. SNAP was founded by Negusse Debela in 2008 with a focus on improving quality and consistency of Ethiopian specialty coffee. Ripe cherries are carefully sorted and processed using traditional washed method before parchment is dried. The station features distinctive ceramic fermentation tanks that retain heat during fermentation while contributing to the clean, precise character for which these coffees are known.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRoaster Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWorka Chelbesa is an expression of both place and collective production. Rather than coming from a single estate, the lot represents the work of hundreds of small farms whose coffee is brought together through the washing station. The combination of extraordinary elevation, diverse plant genetics, a remarkable growing environment, and careful processing has helped establish Chelbesa as one of the most recognized coffee-producing communities within Gedeb. The area has earned a reputation for producing some of Ethiopia's most distinctive coffees, with the ceramic fermentation tanks at SNAP's Danche wet mill contributing to the clean, precise character these coffees have become known for.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Norma Supply Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46326165831724,"sku":"MCC-20261002-ETHIOPIA-WORKA-CHELBESA-10.5OZ","price":23.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0661\/0750\/6732\/files\/METRIC_EthiopiaWorkaChelbesa_10.5OZ_whitebagbrownmockup_e43f7025-4e92-41db-993c-984f2f2065f5.png?v=1790986826","url":"https:\/\/normasupply.co\/products\/metric-coffee-co-ethiopia-worka-chelbesa-mixed-primarily-wolisho-and-dega-washed-ethiopia-10-5oz","provider":"Norma Supply Co.
