Information
Idido (Edido) wet mill is owned and operated by Memiru Demise who has built years of experience running his family’s 26 hectares of coffee farm at the mountain of Idido for the past 12 years. You’ll reach Idido, a small village driving across the mountains of the Yirgacheffee town. Coffee was literally made to thrive in the lush environment Yirgacheffe’s forests provide, developing nuanced floral characteristics, articulate sweetness and sparkling acidity.
Approximately 800 coffee producers from Edido region deliver ripe cherries to Wonberta’s Edido washing station where the cherries are sorted and dried on raised beds. Generally the smallholder owns approximately 1⁄2 hectare of land. Cherries are regularly turned every 2 to 3 hours in the first few days to promote even drying of the cherries for five to six weeks.
The dried cherries are then hulled and stored in the high altitude and cool temperature washing station to let the coffees rest and preserve the longevity of the coffees.
