The Ayele Tulu Washing Station is situated in the Bona Zuria district of the Sidama region, more specifically in the Demeka Becha Kebele, 100 km from Hawassa, Ethiopia. Founded by second-generation grower Ayele Tulu and his son, Tsegab Ayele, Tsegab oversees all factory protocols from harvest to export, ensuring that each step adheres to the highest quality standards.
Due to the region's high elevation, the coffees produced here are famously known as "Highland Coffee." Each year, approximately 600 smallholder producers bring ripe cherries to this washing station.
