Chelbesa, located in Gedeb, is a vital coffee sourcing area where Ephtah exclusively rents and manages the washing station. The washing station in Chelbesa (Kebele), Gedeb (Woreda), plays a crucial role in processing high-quality coffee.
The farm spans 2 hectares and is situated at an elevation of 2150-2200m. It employs 17 permanent staff and 150 additional workers during the harvest season from late November to January. The farm features 150 drying beds and cultivates Heirloom coffee varieties.
The Chelbesa lot, grown at an elevation of 2200m, encompasses a total parcel size of approximately 38400 kg. The best cherries are chosen, floated, and pulped. The coffee is then fermented in fermentation tanks without water and dried for 10-15 days. This processing method ensures the highest quality of coffee. Once dried and stored, the coffee is transported to Moplaco in Gerji, Addis Ababa, and then moved to Djibouti via train for export.
