The hot cup practically throws sweet cherry at you — rich, deep, round, and incredibly inviting. As it cools, things get a little more perfumy, with lavender jockeying its way to the forefront, adding a whole new layer of fun. On the palate, that sweet cherry sticks around, balanced by honey and a subtle hint of coriander.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"Dang.

She inherited her family’s 7.6-hectare farm from her parents, where older Kurume and Dega varieties have gradually been replaced with newer varieties like 74110 and 74112.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHer farm is unusually large for the area. The Gedeo Zone is one of the most densely populated parts of Africa, and farms average around a hectare. At 7.6 hectares, Mrs. Wako is one of the few farmers in the area working land on this scale.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShe’s also one of the few female landowners in her community. Among the Gedeo, land inheritance has traditionally favored male children, making her ownership of the family farm all the more significant.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSo yeah, the coffee is \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003ereally\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e good. But there’s a lot more behind the cup than cherries, lavender, and honey.
