Product Description
Kelloo Lalesa is a washed lot from Lalesa in Gedeb, Gedeo, produced by Alemayehu Tilahun and Origin Land Coffee at Lalesa Washing Station. It comes from cherries delivered by local farmers in the surrounding area and is processed at 2150 masl. The cup is round, balanced, and complex, with baked apple, peach jam, orange, biscuit, jasmine, plum, rosehip, red currant, and black tea in the profile.
Lalesa is known for dense layered semi forest vegetation, with false banana trees and shade grown coffee shaping the growing environment. Alemayehu Tilahun, a native of the Gedeo Zone, built the wet mill in 2018 so he could buy red cherries from nearby farmers, and the station is now vertically integrated with Origin Land Coffee. The Kelloo name is used by the team for coffees that lean toward yellow tropical fruit, florals, peach, and stone fruit, which fits this lot closely.
At the station, cherries are hand sorted, pulped on a traditional Agaarde Disc Pulper, fermented under water for about 72 hours, then graded again in channels before the parchment is soaked and dried on raised beds for roughly 8 to 20 days.
