Coming soonSpecial release
Sale price$26.00

This anaerobic natural cold fermented lot from Alo, Bensa offers a lush, aromatic cup shaped by altitude and careful handling. Grown at 2,400 MASL from JARC 74158, select cherries are fermented at low temperatures to slow microbial activity, allowing sweetness and florals to develop gently without harshness. The result is a silky, expressive profile - tropical fruit depth, rounded berry richness and lifted rose aromatics. A modern interpretation of Alo’s terroir, crafted with intention by Tamiru Tadesse and his wife Messi.

Flavour notes: Paw Paw, Berry Compote, Rose

Origin Story

Alo Coffee was founded by Tamiru Tadesse, a former university lecturer and electrical engineer, and his wife Messi, after years spent working within Ethiopia’s coffee sector. The turning point came in 2020 with Ethiopia’s first Cup of Excellence, proving that exceptional quality could be recognised and rewarded. In 2021, a carefully processed lot from their home village of Alo in Bensa won the country’s inaugural CoE. Today, Alo Coffee focuses on traceable micro-lots, long-term farmer relationships, and thoughtful processing — including patient cold fermentation — to share the full potential of Sidama’s highest-grown coffees.

Process & care

Our sourcing philosophy

Every coffee has a story. Every cup connects people. Sourcing coffee is not just about logistics and contracts. It’s about people, patience, and purpose. Every bag of green coffee represents someone’s work, someone’s story, and a shared pursuit of excellence.

Our relationships are built at Origin. We create partnerships built on respect, shared goals, and good coffee. We believe the best coffees come from long-term partnerships. Many of our producers have worked with us for years, refining the characteristics of the coffee we seek.These relationships are built on mutual respect and open communication. Travelling to visit our producing partners is key to nurturing relationships that matter.
Consistency and quality

From origin to roastery, every step is about consistency. Every shipment we receive is cupped and compared against its pre-ship sample to confirm that the coffee matches the quality and profile we expect. It’s a process that demands time and focus, but it’s what ensures every batch of Deluca coffee delivers on flavour and reliability.
