The Kayon Mountain Coffee Farm is 500 hectares with about 300 hectares planted in coffee and has been owned and operated by Ismael Hassen Aredo and his family since 2012. It is located 510 kilometers south of Addis Ababa, and the property crosses the border of two villages—Taro and Sewana—in the Oromia region, in the Guji zone of the Shakiso district of Ethiopia.

Ismael oversees a staff of 25 permanent full-time and 300 seasonal employees. The farm management offers free transportation services as well as financial support for building schools and administration buildings for the community. The farm competes with a nearby mining village for seasonal workers, so Ismael and his family tend to pay higher wages to their pickers to incentivize them to return year after year.

Kayon Mountain Farm has a nursery on-site and utilizes shade (acacia and other Indigenous trees) to protect the coffee and create compost to fertilize naturally. Ismael is meticulous about not only the structure and management of the farm itself but also the harvesting and processing. Both Natural and Washed lots are produced on the property.

The Cup: This coffee is one of the most unique and thrilling coffees we have ever seen. It could fit the mold of an exceptional washed Ethiopian coffee but it is a little bigger, a little bolder, and a little less subtle. With flavors of apricots on the nose and the taste of a fruit basket filled with pomegranates, cherries, red grapefruits a hint of chocolate, and slightly nutty this coffee is something very special.

The coffee was good but I didn't find the date of roasting. I couldn't get my recipe of double the weight of ground coffee in 25 to 30 seconds. I suppose that was roasted more than four weeks ago. Be more transparent and stamp the date of roasting on the package

Hi Amilcar,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a 4-star review for our Ethiopia Gedeb Gotiti! We're pleased to hear that you enjoyed it overall. At Tico, we aim to provide high-quality, truly unique coffee flavors for our customers to enjoy.
Regarding your concern of the roast date, all our coffees ship freshly roasted typically within one to three days after roasting from our Roastery. We have not been putting roast dates on the coffees that ship from our Roastery as they are always freshly roasted and by the time they arrive at the final destination should be perfect for brewing.
But we will take your feedback and will see how we can incorporate this in our production process.
Thank you and again we are glad you enjoyed the coffee,
Best, Tico Coffee Roasters.

Bought as a gift for my daughter. It's quite tasty, and tastes a lot like coffee. I know that sounds odd, but many coffees don't have that classic coffee flavor.

Fantastic!

I used my Golden bean rewards to order some of my favorite coffees. They did not disappoint. Keep up the great selection, roasts and local impact Tico! I continue to be a HUGE fan!

Fantastic!

Love this bean - it has an incredible blueberry note at the end when made with pourover.

The beans appear freshly roasted and they make a great tasting cup of coffee.
