Adorsi is a privately-owned washing station, located in Yirgacheffe in the Gedeo zone. The washing station was established 2001 in the kebele (local village) of Aricha. It currently employs 50 staff members and 400 seasonal workers, who each year produce a whopping seven containers of washed coffee, ten natural-processed containers, and a little more than one full container of special preparation lots, like this anaerobic-processed lot.

Notable processing details:

—Cherries are immersed in water tanks to remove the low density coffees.
—Cherries are kept airtight in a fully sealed and controlled fermentation tank. The tanks are regulated by valves to ensure no oxygen can seep out throughout the fermentation process.
—The fermentation process lasts 7 days- or until the pH level drops to 3.8.
