Coffee Description
From the beautiful motherland of coffee, Ethiopia, comes a unique red honey process Wush Wush coffee! This coffee is grown by around 2500 smallholder farmers in Keffa, Ethiopia, and brought to Dinkalem Ademe’s washing station. They all are “garden farmers” because most of them are producing coffee in the “garden” areas around their homes, and often harvesting cherries from coffee occurring naturally on the land where they live.

About Dinkalem Ademe of Ethiopia
From our importers, Catalyst Trade:
“Every part of Ethiopia has its own mystique, and the Western region of Keffa is no exception. The roads that thread the map are sparse and constantly traveled, giving up the rich scent of the red soil they are built from under the tires of Land Rovers and donkey carts. Rolling away from the roads like theater Curtains are the fertile patchwork hills that disappear into a soft misty sky. Puffy trees emerge against the skyline like cotton balls dyed the deepest spring green.
The people of Keffa carry their pride in coffee close to the bone. We've all heard the stories: Kaldi, a bored goat herder c. 850, notices his goats have extra energy after eating the fruit of a nearby bush, tries some for himself, and thus the coffee ritual is born. Whether that's really how coffee was discovered or not, we do know the legend originates from Keffa, and the very name of our beloved beverage derives from the region in the southwestern highlands of Ethiopia.”

Mad Priest Coffee
To curious people who are sick of the bland, corporate & “heretical” coffee experience, Mad Priest Coffee Roasters is the unconventional, creative, “sacred” coffee choice. While we may sometimes be irreverent, we always take our coffee and our mission seriously. That’s because we are mad about injustice, especially societal inequality...and bad coffee.
Mad Priest Coffee Roasters began in 2015 as a small-batch specialty coffee roasting company + a social enterprise with the mission to “craft excellent coffee, educate the curious, champion the displaced” and we currently operate our roastery and retail locations in Chattanooga, TN. From the beginning, our goal has been to run a sustainable, for-profit business with a triple bottom line that includes social and environmental goals alongside the economic ones. And most of all, we want to create the best product that wins awards -- and make that product accessible to curious people from every race and culture.
Get Mad. Stay Blessed.
