G’day coffee lover!

Ethiopia is widely regarded as the birthplace of coffee, producing high-quality Arabica coffee beans with unique flavors. Ethiopian coffee is usually more expensive for several reasons:

1. Limited supply: Ethiopian coffee is often produced in small quantities by small-scale farmers, making it a limited commodity.

2. Higher demand: Due to its reputation for quality and unique flavors, Ethiopian coffee is in high demand among coffee lovers and specialty coffee shops.

3. Processing method: Ethiopian coffee is usually processed using the traditional method of natural or dry processing, which involves sun-drying the coffee beans with the fruit still attached. This method takes more time and effort, leading to a higher cost of production.

4. Traceability: Many Ethiopian coffee producers and exporters are now focusing on traceability and transparency in their supply chain, which often comes with additional costs associated with certification and verification.

All of these factors contribute to the higher cost of Ethiopian coffee compared to other types of coffee. However, if you're a coffee lover looking for unique flavors and high quality, Ethiopian coffee is definitely worth trying out!
