Rituals.

Carefully curated. Harmoniously balanced. 1829 Espresso is our seasonal espresso for milk. We source, roast and brew this coffee specifically for an exceptional milk based experience.

Bette Buna is a vertically integrated coffee company founded in 2020 by husband and wife Dawit and Hester. Their coffee journey began following the passing of Dawit’s grandfather, who farmed coffee with his wife, Emame, in Taferi Kela, Sidama for nearly a century.

Bette Buna operates farms across Sidama, Guji, Yirgacheffe and Bench Maji while collaborating with allied farmers in these regions. Their coffee is processed as a classic washed process, whereby initially imperfect cherries are removed by floating, followed by pulping and fermentation for 48–72 hours to remove mucilage. Finally, the seeds are soaked and dried on raised beds or two weeks to achieve optimal moisture content.

"This is the second year we are buying our Ethiopian 1829 from Bette Buna. It’s a great project focusing on social impact through equal opportunity employment, value creation for small producers and sustainable farm practices.”

Lukas Haertel, Coffee Quality and Sourcing Manager.
