The Keramo washing station is owned and operated by Daye Bensa and around 1,500 producers contribute cherry to the washing station. Coffees from this region produce some of the world's most complex profiles. Located right next to the equally impressive site of Hamasho, Keramo sits at an altitude of 2,360 masl, which helps produce higher-density seeds with a heavy concentration of smaller screen sizes—an indicator of the slower maturation times that occur at extreme altitudes.
This lot is crafted using Ethiopia’s traditional washed processing method. Ripe coffee cherries are delivered to the Keramo washing station, where they are meticulously sorted and de-pulped before undergoing underwater fermentation for 24–72 hours. Once fermentation is complete, the seeds are washed to remove mucilage and then dried on raised beds for around 15 days to achieve optimal moisture levels.
This coffee presents with a citric and stone fruit sweetness along with a nice florality that you would expect from a great washed Ethiopian coffee.
We ship freshly roasted coffee Monday through Friday via UPS ground. Most orders placed before 2pm EST will ship same day.
Delayed, Lost or Stolen Packages
We will do our best to help troubleshoot with you, but we
cannot control what happens when your package leaves the roasting
facility. Once the package has been picked up, it is out of our hands.
Holidays, severe weather, carrier staff shortage and high package volumes are causing delays in package transit time.
As a small business, we are unable to absorb the costs of
packages being lost in transit. We cannot refund orders that are marked
as delivered with a tracking number, even if a customer is stating they
haven’t received the package.
For UPS claims, please email us at georgio@georgioscoffee.com
When checking out, *Please make sure your address is correct!*
In order to balance getting your coffee out to
you as quickly as possible with freshness of roast we ship all coffee as
ordered within one week of the roast date. We typically roast
Wednesdays and Fridays.
In our experience most coffees
taste best after a few days rest, and high quality coffees stay at peak
flavor up to six weeks post roast.
