The Anderacha lot, named after the river bordering Abana Estate in Ethiopia’s Oromia highlands, undergoes whole-cherry fermentation for 18–24 hours to enhance sweetness, complexity, and body before being floated and naturally dried on raised beds. Surrounded by biodiverse forests, the estate uses a water-recycling wet mill and supports local social programs, reflecting Abana’s deep commitment to quality and sustainability.
