We have been working with Sookoo’s founder, Ture Waji, since our earliest days sourcing coffee in Ethiopia. Ture and his brother, Assefa, founded Sookoo (legally, Dambi Uddo Agro Industry) in late 2018/early 2019. In that same harvest, Osito delivered to Dambi Uddo their very first registered purchase contract.
Ever considering ways to pursue existing relationships in deeper/more meaningful ways, three years ago we asked Ture to start considering farmers that were delivering cherry to his station in large enough volumes that we may be able to keep their cherry separate and, thus, have single farmer lots, dried by the Sookoo team. The goal was to indentify producers that would have historically delivered to Shoondhisa or Bookkisa, the two community lots Osito considers foundational to our work with Sookoo.
For the third consecutive year, we have been fortunate enough to purchase two such lots from Sookoo, including this wonderful coffee from Bogalech Dukkale which is replete with the most coveted flavors associated with Guji, including pronounced hops and florals.
Bogalech Dukkale is a 47-year-old mother of six. She and her husband oversee a four hectare farm that Bogalech inherited from her parents, who were also coffee producers.
