Buku Abel

About This Coffee

This natural processed coffee is from the Guji zone in Ethiopia. Produced by smallholder farmers who deliver their coffee cherries to the Buku Drying Station in the village of Buku, the station is operated by DW Coffee. The coffee features Local Heirloom varieties and was harvested between November 2020 and January 2021. The natural process delivers a fruity-sweet, silky cup with flavor notes of blueberry and plum, offering good body and clean balance.

Hoppenworth & Ploch

Hoppenworth & Ploch started as a campus café at Frankfurt University in 2008 and has since grown into one of the city's most respected specialty coffee roasteries. Co-founders Matthias Hoppenworth and Julian Ploch have been roasting on a Giesen W30A in their Sachsenhausen roastery since 2019, with a strong focus on light roasts that reveal the full complexity of each origin. They were named Roaster of the Year 2021 by Crema Magazine, and their team includes a German Roasting Master champion. Alongside their three Frankfurt cafés — including one in the beautifully reconstructed new Altstadt — they run popular barista courses and supply offices and restaurants. Their stated mission: pushing toward a fairer, friendlier, and more sustainable food and hospitality industry.
