Ethiopia Yukro

Ethiopia Yukro

Yukro is a pristine example of Ethiopian coffee’s excellent qualities, with a bright, sweet profile of peaches and cream, with key lime acidity that keeps you coming back for more. Yukro’s beautiful flavors can be directly attributed to the introduction of washed processing to the region ten years ago, with an investment of processing equipment by Technoserve.


In the hands of the very capable Kata Muduga cooperative union, Yukro is immaculately processed, with every coffee seed mechanically separated from the surrounding fruit and mucilage and then thoroughly washed overnight, ensuring the entire crop is completely clean before the drying process. 


As a result Yukro not only arrives in country sparkling and bright, but continues to develop a more complex flavor as it rests, with an unparalleled longevity for green coffee. We are very excited to serve this coffee and see how it progresses under our watch.

Agaro, Ethiopia

While the original Yukro Multipurpose Cooperative was established in
1977, the Yukro we know and love today didn’t find its way to market until just ten years ago, after USAID’s
Technoserve project vested this region—once known for less-than-stellar Grade 5 sundried naturals—with
brand-new processing equipment, allowing their coffee to showcase its unique character and improve the
lives of those growing it in the process. Yukro operates under the leadership of the Kata Muduga cooperative
union, whose continued investment in the coops that it leads makes possible some of the most delicious and
coveted coffees in the world.
