The Ethiopian Forest Coffee Atlas

The Ethiopian Forest Coffee Atlas
Commissioned in 2019, the Ethiopian Forest Coffee Atlas brought the most successful and thriving coffee cooperatives in Ethiopia together in one atlas. Supported by the Ethiopian government and DC-based NGO Technoserve, the booklet talks about the villagers, workers, and surroundings of each coffee bean cooperative.
Alongside interviews and stories, cupping scores for the beans produced in the region round out each chapter.
The book was circulated to wholesalers such as Nestle, Starbucks, and others with resounding success, prompting similar industries across Africa to reach out to Technoserve for similar books.
