About:
Located in Gedeo zone of the Gedeb district, Worka Danche is one of the finest coffee producing areas within the famous Gedeb Woreda. Known for its dense layered semi forest vegetation structure encompassing false banana trees as well as shade grown coffee trees, Danche is a great example of best coffee growing agro ecology.
SNAP Specialty Coffee built their new wet mill in 2019 in a small hamlet called Chelbesa within the Danche Village with the hope of reaching out and purchasing exclusively red cherries from the nearby farmers in Danche Village. Their ambition became a reality after completion of the project. The fermentation tanks of the wet mill were built by ceramic which will help bring clarity in the coffee that they process as well as help fasten the fermentation through keep heat inside the ceramic.
