Nazimu Abamecha was the founder of the Duromina cooperative to ensure better recognition of the region's coffee production. Then a couple of years ago he decided to sell his coffee independently, to ensure a higher quality of his lots and improve traceibility. Its also rare to see and find single farmer lots, and it tasted fantastic on the cupping table blind.
The farm of Nazimu is located in the south of Jimma, in the district of Goma, village of Botto. Nazimu's parents worked this land before him, on which they also produced coffee. The farm covers 8 ha, behind a beautiful coffee forest made up of indigenous species. This complex agroforestry system ensures the production of high-quality coffee, where the cherries ripen slowly in the shade of a dense tree canopy. Nazimu is working to keep this ancient agricultural system alive, by maintaining the forest. He also has few animals to help him to work corn fields, a crop that allows him to supplement his income. Nazimu manages his coffee trees with great care, he divides them into different lots on his farm according to their age. The oldest plants are 32 years old, the most recent 4 years old. Nazimu and Belco started to work together this year by sharing energies to select and trace the most beautiful lots from this coffee farm in Botto.
