The naming of Ethiopian regions and coffee varietals are closely related to its surrounding - they are often named after some other local tree species, for example, Kurume, Wolisho, etc. are actually named after other tree species commonly found around the varietals; and the Duwancho Cooperative located in Abergona's Duwancho Kebele is named after a native tree found in the surrounding area as well.
More on the Processing
The Duwancho washing station collects handpick ripe cherries from nearby farmers, where the cherries are visually checked and sorted so that only fully ripe cherries qualify for anaerobic fermentation.
The cherry is then carefully sealed in GrainPro bags for 24 to 36 hours of anaerobic fermentation before being dried on raised beds under direct sunlight for 2 to 3 weeks, with workers turning the cherry often to ensure even drying.
