The kebele (community) of Worka Chelbesa is located in Gedeb, which is the most southern part of the Gedeo region. For the last decade, the area of Worka Chelbesa has become more and more well known for producing spectacular coffees, and this is why this area was one of the first places that coffee producer Neguesse Debela wanted to invest in when he started in coffee a few years ago.
In 2017, Neguesse started operating his first site in Worka Chelbessa, but quickly expanded in 2019 by buying another washing station a few kilometers away in a small area sub area of Worka Chelbesa called Danche. The two sites, run by Negusse and his team, execute immaculate washed and natural processed coffees, but also create unique experimental lots in an effort to always keep improving their quality.
The coffees from Worka Chelbesa are unique in that the combine a great juicy body, with the lighter citrus tones and florality that you normally find in coffees that can tend to be thin in the cup with less sweetness.
