The Othosololo Honey lot comes from the Osolo Station, located in the Greita Korsa highland area of Guji Oromia, Ethiopia. The station serves approximately 150-200 smallholder farmers from the surrounding communities of Wocho Sololo, Tabata, Mebocho, and Mender. Their farms sit at elevations of 2,240-2,280 meters above sea level. The primary variety is JARC 74158, along with other JARC varieties like 74112 and 74110.
The Honey Process is a form of partial cherry-mucilage drying (no bee honey used). These cherries were picked fresh at ripe stages and carefully delivered to the Osolo Station. The cherries were then de-pulped without the use of water. The wet parchment (cherry mucilage on the seed) is then dried on raised beds for 12-13 days with careful monitoring and rotations to ensure an even drying process.
The varieties: JARC 74158 (Walega), 74112 & 74110 are native species of coffee trees that were selected for greater use in Ethiopia's commercial coffee cultivation. The Jimma Agricultural Research Center in the 1970's selected these varieties for their resilience, stability and cherry production. These coffee types originated from mother plants found in the Metu Bishari forest region of Illuababora, Ethiopia. This is a widely loved and celebrated trio of Landrace varieties full of a signature citrus-berry & floral character when grown in the Ethiopian Highlands.
