A natural community

Puns aside,our natural coffees now come exclusively from Yirgacheffe and Guji, sourced through Tsedenia and Altayen of Mocca.Run by Tsedenia and Altayen,who come from a family that has been in the coffee trade since the 1990s.Mocca builds on deep-rooted experience of both their own family and the producers it works with.Before starting Mocca, Tsedenia specialised in coffee processing and export for over five years, while Altayen brings over 15 years of experience running a coffee shop.

They work closely with smallholder farmers making each lot fully traceable and who carry generations of knowledge, where coffee and nature go hand in hand and remains a ceremonial drink for many who grow and consume it. Farmers cultivate coffee under agroforestry systems, and through Mocca’s dry and wet mills in Guji and Yirgacheffe, different processing methods are used to bring out the depth and diversity of Ethiopian flavours.

By returning year after year, she builds long-term relationships that add real value to farmers’ lives, mirroring our role and values on the other side of the chain. Through this continuity, she helps shape both single-farmer and community lots that can command premium prices—working with producers she trusts not only for their coffee, but for how they reinvest those premiums to improve quality of life within their communities.

Recommended Ikawa profile

We found that to make this Ethiopian explode in flavour, we had to create our own Ethiopia profiles, both for washed and naturals. Great balance between florals, fruity acidity and the syrupy undertones.
