Sixteen growing areas, classified to Kew depth.
Ethiopia is not one origin. This is the map the association works from — after the Coffee Atlas of Ethiopia (Kew, 2018) — with each area’s altitude, processing, harvest window and cup profile.

Step 1 of 4 · Region
Ethiopia is not one origin. Kew classifies its coffee into five zones — pick one on the map, or here.
Step 2 of 4 · Growing area
Each zone holds two to six growing areas, and they do not taste alike. Pick the one you want to read.
Step 3 of 4 · The coffee
Cup
Step 4 of 4 · Buyer brief
That is what this area is. What the public atlas cannot tell you is what is actually available from it — who is holding it this season, at what grade, and whether the compliance work is already done. The Buyers Guide is this same map with live supply behind it.
See the Buyers GuideEvery area carries its Kew reference.
Provenance is a classification rather than a marketing name, so a lot can be traced to the reference the association works from — the Coffee Atlas of Ethiopia (Kew, 2018). Each region on the map opens what it means; each growing area opens its altitude, processing, harvest window and cup profile.
