Daye Bensa, founded by brothers Asefa and Mulugeta Dukamo, operates as a grower, washing station, and exporter, handling coffees from its own two farms in the Shantawene Village as well as purchasing from local smallholders and operating 15 washing stations across three districts.
Since its founding in 2006, the company has worked to encourage quality coffee production throughout its community, hosting harvest celebrations and rewarding top contributors with special certificates and premiums. More recently, they have begun collaborating with Hawassa University on research into further improving coffee quality.
The unique flavors of Kilenso come largely from its natural processing at origin, in which the seeds are dried with the whole coffee cherry intact, imbuing it with intense brightness, sweetness, and fruitiness.
Look for balanced and juicy notes of key lime, lavender, and custard in the cup.
