Sourcing note

Dukale Alo & Bombe Village: From agroforestry plots located at over 2,000 meters, in the villages of Alo and Bombe, coffee trees constitute a cash crop for the families who grow them, alongside subsistence farming (fruit, vegetables, livestock, etc.). The cherries are selected by the Dukale brothers, who manage fermentation and processing, i.e. the constitution of the final batches. These batches are the best from the dozens of small farms collected in the village.

Dukale Yirgacheffe Idido: The Dukale brothers know the best Ethiopian terroirs, and the best small producers from which to buy their cherries, and Idido is currently at the top of the Yirgacheffe appellation. A product of ancient agroforestry practices, this lot derives its complexity from the fact that it is made up of different parcels.

Dukale's terroir and mastery of fermentation complement the work of the growers to deliver a grand cru, floral, fruity and spicy, with a perfect harmony of flavors.

Tasting note

Dukale Alo - Heirloom Red Honey:

On the nose: buttery, spicy and chocolate notes.

On the palate: notes of caramelized almond, cardamom, apricot jam and milk chocolate.

The cup is round and greedy.

Dukale Bombe Village - Heirloom Anaerobique Nature :

On the nose: intoxicating notes of port, red fruit jam, jasmine and muscovado.

On the palate: notes of refreshing timut berry and lychee, morello cherry, cocoa bean and candied quetsche. The finish is liquorish, with tones of crème de cassis, kirsch cherry and white grape.

The cup is velvety and complex. A cup out of the ordinary, a must-try.

Dukale Yirgacheffe Idido - Heirloom Anaerobic Red Honey:

On the nose: notes of jasmine, yellow peach and mango.

On the palate: raspberry, tea, citrus and exotic fruit. Brilliant acidity is delicately set against this silky body, delivering an immense coffee, both complex and transparent. The apotheosis of Yirgacheffe.
