About Desta Gola of Ethiopia
Desta Gola is a farmer whom we have had the pleasure of working with for many years now, and his coffee is one of our very favorites each year. The direct partnership with him means you can trace this purchase directly back to the producer to witness a measurable improvement in quality of life.
By selling directly to Olympia Coffee, Desta Gola was able to earn 25 percent more then he would be selling on the commodity market. His coffee exemplifies what we love about Ethiopian coffee and the industry-leading people we have the honor of working with there as a part of our Fair for All sourcing model.

Olympia Coffee Roasting
No cause partially fulfilled, Olympia cares about a lot - and you can taste it. Neatly tucked beneath the title, "Fair For All", this certified B Corp has championed a program that promotes a better quality of life for farmers, employees and customers. You can find the prices they paid for coffee in their publicly published annual transparency report, a model they are glad to share with other roasters to do the same. Olympia also provides many benefits to their employees that are uncommon to the service industry and believes that those who buy their coffee will feel rewarded knowing their coffee purchase is a guilt-free one.
Integrity aside, Olympia has earned many awards for their coffee like 2014 Roaster of the Year and Food & Wine Magazine's 2019 Best coffee in Washington State.
