Eastern Ethiopia's flagship origin and one of the oldest coffee-producing regions in the world. Harrar is a natural-process tradition: bold, fruity, and unmistakable.
A short history
Coffee in Harrar predates written record. The walled city of Harar — a UNESCO World Heritage site — has traded coffee with the Arabian peninsula for centuries. Production today is dominated by smallholders working in dry, semi-arid conditions.
What buyers say about Harrar
