In late 1990s, devastating forest fires left large areas of Ethiopia’s Guji region damaged and stripped of vegetation.
But where others saw destruction, coffee producer Tesfaye Bekele saw an opportunity to rebuild.
Through the Suke Quto project, Tesfaye helped restore the landscape by planting coffee alongside native shade trees, encouraging reforestation while creating sustainable livelihoods for local farming communities.
Today, Suke Quto is a testament to what can happen when coffee cultivation and environmental restoration work together.
And the story doesn’t end at the farm…
Our Suke Quto Swiss Water Decaf goes through a unique decaffeination process that uses water, temperature, time, and carbon filtration to remove 99.9% of the caffeine - without chemical solvents. The result? A decaf that still tastes like the coffee it came from.
From a forest brought back to life to a carefully crafted decaffeination process, Suke Quto is proof that removing the caffeine doesn’t mean removing the character.
