A beautiful and complex cup, tropical and refreshing. It opens with juicy pineapple, revealing a bright yellow facet layered with floral notes and a persistent thread of blackberry. A zesty character lifts the profile, bringing clarity and a crisp finish.

Elto Coffee is the vision of Eliyas Dukamo and Atiklit Dejene, a couple from Sidama Bensa driven by a deep passion for coffee. Their project, Elto, is dedicated to showcasing the full richness of Ethiopian terroirs through exclusive nano-lots of remarkable clarity and complexity.

Working hand in hand with smallholder farmers from surrounding communities, they carefully select the ripest cherries and transform them with a rare precision, blending traditional knowledge with contemporary innovation. Each lot is treated as a canvas, where processing methods like washed, natural, and honey are reimagined to highlight the singular expression of Sidama’s terroir.

What makes Elto unique is not only the meticulous attention to detail, but also a philosophy rooted in long-term partnerships, traceability, and a vision for a better coffee world. Their approach ensures that every cup is the result of both craftsmanship and respect, for the land, the producers, and the future of specialty coffee.

The variety was named by the Jimma Agricultural Research Center (JARC) in 1974 to identify coffee trees with strong disease resistance. “74” marks the year of selection, while numbers like 158, 112 or 110 indicate the specific varietal line.
