{"product_id":"ethiopia-abdo-aba-mecha","title":"Ethiopia Abdo Aba Mecha","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbdo Aba Mecha is a member of the Tokuma group. They are collective of smallholder farmers in Western Ethiopia who grow, process and export their own coffee, rather than selling it to an exporter or to the Ethiopian Commodities Exchange (ECX).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJust a few years ago, exporting independently wasn’t an option for smallholder farmers. However, recent changes in export regulations have made this possible. This allows each lot from Tokuma to be fully traceable back to the specific farm where it was cultivated. More importantly, it helps lower production costs and ensures that more money stays with the farmers who work so hard to bring this coffee to market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSix years ago, we began our partnership with the Tokuma group by purchasing from their inaugural member, Mensur Aba Hika. Since then, we've expanded to purchasing from several members, including Abdo Aba Mecha. Last season, we were blown away by the quality of Abdo's lot. This year is no different. It's peachy, sweet, and full of delightful notes of black tea. In processing, Abdo's attention to detail is unparalleled. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 99.9988%; height: 176.406px;\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6007px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 30.9677%; height: 19.6007px;\"\u003eCOUNTRY\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 68.7589%; height: 19.6007px;\"\u003e Ethiopia\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6007px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 30.9677%; height: 19.6007px;\"\u003eZONE\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 68.7589%; height: 19.6007px;\"\u003eJimma\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6007px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 30.9677%; height: 19.6007px;\"\u003eWOREDA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 68.7589%; height: 19.6007px;\"\u003eGomma\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6007px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 30.9677%; height: 19.6007px;\"\u003eKEBELE\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 68.7589%; height: 19.6007px;\"\u003eIllbu\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6007px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 30.9677%; height: 19.6007px;\"\u003eVARIETY\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 68.7589%; height: 19.6007px;\"\u003eJARC 74110\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6007px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 30.9677%; height: 19.6007px;\"\u003eELEVATION\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 68.7589%; height: 19.6007px;\"\u003e1,900-2,100 mas\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6007px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 30.9677%; height: 19.6007px;\"\u003ePROCESS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 68.7589%; height: 19.6007px;\"\u003eWashed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6007px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 30.9677%; height: 19.6007px;\"\u003eROAST LEVEL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 68.7589%; height: 19.6007px;\"\u003eLight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.6007px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 30.9677%; height: 19.6007px;\"\u003eNOTES\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 68.7589%; height: 19.6007px;\"\u003ePeach, Black Tea, Cane Sugar\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eDuring processing, only ripest cherries undergo a meticulous examination before being hand-pulped in the evening.

In the afternoon, parchment coffee is transferred to raised beds, where it dries for approximately 14 days, reaching the ideal moisture content of 10.5%. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eFor details on the shipping timeline for your order, please visit our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/smallplanescoffee.mom\/pages\/faq-1\"\u003eFAQ\u003c\/a\u003e page.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Small Planes","offers":[{"title":"12 oz","offer_id":42238096572498,"sku":"SP-C-12-5725","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 lb","offer_id":42238096605266,"sku":"SP-C-2-2725","price":54.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 lb","offer_id":42238096638034,"sku":"SP-C-5-2725","price":110.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2428\/7295\/files\/AbdoAbaMechaTile2025.jpg?v=1765381666","url":"https:\/\/smallplanescoffee.mom\/products\/ethiopia-abdo-aba-mecha","provider":"Small Planes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
