Abana Estate is a family-owned business, started as the result of a passion for coffee and community. Founded by Peter Omran, and now managed by his sons, Michael and Chris, the name Abana translates to “our fathers” (Arabic), to pay homage to the roots, heritage, and tradition of wild grown coffee that traces to the heart of Ethiopia. For the better part of 25 years, Peter was involved in humanitarian aid and development projects in poverty-stricken areas of the Middle East and Africa. At Abana Estate he’s continued that work, implementing many outreach projects designed to help the local community around the farm.
The name Anderacha comes from a river that borders the farm. This river gets very large during the rainy season and is a source of life and nutrients for the community and eco-system. This lot was uniquely processed, utilizes a unique 24-36 hr. cherry rest prior to drying. This rest period allows for a small amount of controlled fermentation and further intensifies the fruit notes in this wild coffee.
