Lalesa is more than just the name of a washing station; it’s a place where we stood last year, watched women carefully sort coffee cherries, and admired Wubit as she led her team with incredible determination. Lalesa is proof that coffee can change lives. And now, we get to share this coffee with you. It’s the taste of a place that truly moved us.

This version of Lalesa is black honey processed, a method that enhances sweetness and texture, creating a complex and elegant profile full of floral and citrus notes.
