ETHIOPIA GUJI, LESLIE SHONORA URAGA

This coffee was produced by Lelise Shonora and her

husband, Sida Udessa, in the Uraga area of Ethiopia’s

East Guji Zone. Together, they manage an expansive

coffee farm situated among the high elevations and

fertile landscapes that have made Guji one of the

world’s most celebrated coffee-growing regions.

Lelise Shonora comes from a deeply rooted coffee-

growing family led by patriarch Shonora Gata, who

helped establish some of the earliest washing stations

in the Guji region. Generations of coffee knowledge,

cultivation practices, and community leadership have

shaped the family’s approach to production. Today,

Lelise and Sida continue that legacy through careful

farm management, selective harvesting, and an

unwavering commitment to quality.
