DWD manages several washing and drying stations in the Sidama region. The region from which Bombe coffee comes is located in the village of the same name, at an altitude of 1950 m. This station called Wax General Trading offers the possibility of offering washed, natural and anaerobically fermented coffees, all processed with the greatest care.
The cherries that are prepared here are collected from different small producers in the neighboring villages.
Coffee cultivation is old in this region and integrated into a mixed farming system which allows farmers to diversify their income and ensure the harvest of food crops.
Producer Ato Dukale
Ato Dukale was born near Bensa, in the Sidama region, where his parents already had a coffee farm. At a very young age, he began to venture into small businesses in the region, such as cane sugar. But quickly his interest turned completely towards coffee. He traveled extensively in his native region to collect a few bags from different Sidama farmers. At the end of the 1980s he built the first washing station in Daye Bensa, which he called “Awraja and his family. » Awraja was the name of the department where he lived when he was young, a name used under the Derg but which has since disappeared. This was above all the nickname of Ato Dukale at the time when he was a famous volleyball player and when he traveled the country with his team, under the colors of his district: Bensa Awraja!
Since then its activity has prospered because the Dukale Wakayo Dakola company currently has 16 collection centers in the Sidama and Yirgacheffe regions. It is taken over by the sons of Ato Dukale who, with their father, put their rigor into producing high quality coffees.Sidama terroir
The territories of the Sidama appellation are more than 500 km wide: the coffees therefore have very different profiles! Sidama is the name of the appellation but above all it is the name of the people of southern Ethiopia. Sidamo is a negative way that people from the North use to talk about the Sidama people of the South.
The appellation is divided into 4 areas simply distinguished by the letters A, B, C, D. Each of these four areas offers a specific cup profile. The Sidama A appellation, with its sweetness and its notes of yellow fruits (apricot, peach), is the one which offers the typical Sidama / Sidamo profile.
Each is attached to a specific geographical area, which is based on administrative divisions. Thus, the Sidama A designation extends to:
- the Guji zone which is made up of the districts (woreda) of Odo Shakisso, Uraga, Hambela, Kercha, Adola and Anassora.
- the Sidama zone which is made up of the districts of Bensa, Chiré, Aroressa.
