Like the rest of the country, it is divided into several woredas (districts) and kebeles (communities), each with washing stations that reflect the unique terroir of their surroundings. One such woreda is Bensa, where the Shantawene kebele is located.\u003c\/span\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoffee is the main source of income for producers in Shentawane, who cultivate it on small farms ranging from 0.1 to 2 hectares. They usually intercrop with false banana trees to provide shade. Fertilization is rare in the area, as the soil is naturally fertile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the Ayla washing station, the process begins with cherry selection. Cherries are immersed in water tanks to remove floaters. After sorting, they are depulped and fermented for 100 hours. Once fermentation is complete, the parchment is spread on raised African beds and dried under a parabolic shade net for 15 days. This coffee is part of an improved process project that includes a five day fermentation period with water changed every 24 hours. Fermentation proceeds slowly at ambient temperatures of 18.5 to 20.5 degrees Celsius.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coffee was imported by Red Fox.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e White peach, floral, orange sorbet\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ayla Shantawene, Sidama Ethiopia\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Small producers around the Shantawene kebela bring cherry to the Ayla washing station\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAltitude:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 1950 masl\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCultivar: \u003c\/strong\u003eHeirloom varieties \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProcess:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Fully washed and dried on raised beds \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"stampactcoffee","offers":[{"title":"12oz\/ 340g","offer_id":49345490387195,"sku":"SASAylaShantawene-12oz","price":22.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2lbs","offer_id":49345490419963,"sku":"SASAylaShantawene-2lb","price":57.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5lbs","offer_id":49345490452731,"sku":"SASAylaShantawene-5lb","price":135.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0002\/1390\/9563\/files\/Shantawene2026.jpg?v=1790007431","url":"https:\/\/stampactcoffee.com\/products\/ayla-shantawene-sidama-ethiopia","provider":"stampactcoffee","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
