His company, Testi Specialty Coffee, runs several stations in Guji; Ayla is its first in Sidamo. Around 800 farmers deliver cherries to the station. They grow coffee at 1,950 to 2,000 metres above sea level, on small plots averaging about 0.5 hectares.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBesides buying cherries, Testi Specialty Coffee supports the local community. In Sidamo it has helped build schools for local children, supported a project to improve access to drinking water and helped connect homes to the electricity grid.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFarmers hand-pick ripe red cherries and bring them to Ayla. Because the farms are small, most of the work is done by the family. At the station the cherries are inspected and damaged or unripe ones are removed. The cherries are pulped and fermented in a tank for 36 to 48 hours. After fermentation the parchment is washed with clean water and spread out to dry on raised beds, where it is raked often so it dries evenly.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"S A K O N A - T O S T A D O R E S","offers":[{"title":"250g \/ Whole bean","offer_id":53580837323080,"sku":"SAK-BOMBE-250-GR","price":17.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ Moka pot","offer_id":53580837355848,"sku":"SAK-BOMBE-250-MOKA","price":17.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ Espresso","offer_id":53580837388616,"sku":"SAK-BOMBE-250-ESP","price":17.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ Filter","offer_id":53580837421384,"sku":"SAK-BOMBE-250-FIL","price":17.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ French press","offer_id":53580837454152,"sku":"SAK-BOMBE-250-FP","price":17.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ Aeropress","offer_id":53580837486920,"sku":"SAK-BOMBE-250-AERO","price":17.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 kg \/ Whole bean","offer_id":53580837519688,"sku":"SAK-BOMBE-1KG-GR","price":59.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 kg \/ Moka pot","offer_id":53580837552456,"sku":"SAK-BOMBE-1KG-MOKA","price":59.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 kg \/ Espresso","offer_id":53580837585224,"sku":"SAK-BOMBE-1KG-ESP","price":59.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 kg \/ Filter","offer_id":53580837617992,"sku":"SAK-BOMBE-1KG-FIL","price":59.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 kg \/ French press","offer_id":53580837650760,"sku":"SAK-BOMBE-1KG-FP","price":59.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 kg \/ Aeropress","offer_id":53580837683528,"sku":"SAK-BOMBE-1KG-AERO","price":59.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0865\/0774\/9704\/files\/BOMBE.png?v=1784802694"},{"product_id":"burundi-kibingo","title":"Burundi - Kibingo Oro","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDrink a lot of coffee?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 1 kg bag works out at 60,50 €\/kg, 13 % less than the 250 g bag (70,00 €\/kg).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kayanza, Burundi\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWashing station:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kibingo\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducers:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1,739 smallholder farmers working with Greenco Coffee\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHarvest:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2025\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProcess:\u003c\/strong\u003e Washed, yeast-inoculated (Oro)\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAltitude:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1,525–1,675 masl\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red Bourbon\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red apple, honey and peach.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THE WASHING STATION\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuying this IMPACT-certified coffee from the Kibingo washing station supports a flagship IMPACT Beyond project that sets up livestock solidarity chains, helping coffee-farming families get access to livestock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs part of the Beyond flagship programmes, the initiative supports higher incomes, access to microcredit, women's entrepreneurship and inputs for organic farming, among other things, towards IMPACT's living-income goal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Kibingo washing station is in Kayanza, in northern Burundi, at 1,893 metres above sea level.
