He was targeted by that regime and died as a wanted man. Many years later, under an amnesty and reconciliation program, the current government granted this land to the family and his three sons now grow coffee. Talk about a storied piece of land! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut, of course, the story doesn’t end there. In 2006, Musa won a national competition and won a trip to the African Fine Coffee Association to expand his specialty coffee knowledge plus a hand coffee pulper and a cash prize, which he used to expand his farm But, just two years later, the Ethiopian Commodity Exchange was established, which ended direct export, meaning he had to sell locally at commercial (lower) prices. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBUT! The story doesn’t end there! A handful of years later in 2016, an export liberation allowed certain farmers to obtain their own export license, allowing Musa to directly sell his coffee to green coffee buyers, meaning he can sell his coffee for higher (and very justified!) prices. Alongside his coffee, Musa also grows avocados and keeps honey bees to diversify his income during the coffee off-season. And if that wasn’t enough already, Musa and his brother Mustefa operate a seed production business, where they supply seeds to local government seed banks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll the parts of this story culminate in a beautiful cup of coffee, one that tastes bright, fresh, and deliciously creamy. Each sip is full of flavor that’s enhanced by the incredible history it came from.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eREGION: Agaro, Goma District, Ethiopia\u003cbr\u003eFARM: Koye Farm\u003cbr\u003eVARIETAL: Ethiopian Landrace\u003cbr\u003eALTITUDE: 2,100 meters\u003cbr\u003ePRODUCER: Musa, Mustefa \u0026amp;
