FACTS:  The Koke washing station is named for the Koke kebele, or town, where it is located in the Yirgacheffe district of the Gedeo Zone. This is a family-owned washing station, which was built in 2011 and has seen many improvements since 2015, when the washing station staff began providing guidance to contributing producers regarding steps to increase coffee quality.  

The Koke station stands on the side of a hill, with coffee grown above and below the station. For the last five years, the Koke station managers have been separating out the higher elevation cherries, and the quality clearly shows. 96 small scale farmers provided cherries to Koke this harvest most of them multi-generational family farmers.

KOS's Coffee's light roasts changed my entire perspective on "good coffee"

I have been drinking espresso-based coffees for years, and I thought that my experience trying coffee shops across the Florida, the US and in some European countries had really shown it all to me. I thought that I liked the bold, yet bitter, flavors from Ethiopian coffees.

When I was first introduced to KOS coffee via their iced lattes in house, I was blown away. There were flavors I didn't even know were possible.

I have since moved away from Florida, so I can't have their delightful coffee made by KOS in-house. However, even with my inability to dial in espresso, this coffee rocks! It quite literally beats the coffee of all the specialty coffee shops around me in a major metropolitan area. Thank you, KOS; your coffee literally changed my entire perspective on what great coffee can be

Absolutely stunning!

I just made my first cup with a pour-over V60, and wow, it's super sweet, tasty, and clean. Seriously one of the best washed Ethiopian coffees I've ever had.

After taste is perfect!

I just described this coffee to my husband - it feels like I'm drinking silk texture coffee. I love it.
