Ethiopia Gambella Bella is a specialty coffee from the Gambella region of Ethiopia, processed using anaerobic fermentation. This method enhances the coffee’s complexity and highlights its vibrant fruit-forward character.
The Gambella region is known for its fertile soils, favorable climate, and ideal growing conditions for high-quality Arabica coffee. These environmental factors allow farmers to produce beans with remarkable sweetness, clarity, and aromatic intensity. During the anaerobic fermentation process, the coffee cherries are fermented in a controlled oxygen-free environment, which intensifies the fruity notes and adds depth to the flavor profile.
In the cup, Ethiopia Gambella Bella reveals bright notes of apricot, sweet fruit jam, and delicate cocoa. The coffee has a balanced structure with pleasant acidity, natural sweetness, and a clean, lingering finish.

Brewing Recommendations
For optimal results we recommend a 1:16 brew ratio (20 g of coffee per 320 ml of water). The ideal water temperature is 92–96°C (198–205°F) with an extraction time of 2–3 minutes, depending on the brewing method.
Grinding the coffee just before brewing will help preserve the full aromatic profile and ensure the best flavor experience.
