Arabica coffee originated in Ethiopia. According to legend, a shepherd named Kaldi discovered coffee by accident: he noticed that his goats became more active after consuming ripe, red coffee berries.
As a labour-intensive crop, coffee provides a livelihood for more than 15 million people in Ethiopia. More than 90% of coffee is produced by small producers.
Note: this is unroasted coffee which therefore still needs to be roasted before consumption.
Nekempti also known as Lekempti, is a region located in Wellega state, about 6 hours west by car from Addis.
