The village of Yabitu Koba is located within Uraga Woreda, a high altitude zone where heights range from 2100-2350 meters above sea level. The air is thin and cool at this altitude and coffee cherries ripen slowly, which results in small-dense beans. When the coffee is laid out to dry in the sun, it can take up to four weeks to dry due to the cold, which encourages a more fruit-forward cup.
