About the Farm

Biloya is a kebele or town in the Woreda of Kochere in the Gedeo Zone. Even though Yirgacheffe is a separate Woreda, the commodities exchange in Ethiopia assigns coffee using larger geographic labels decided based on distinct flavor profiles, in this case Yirgacheffe.

The washing station of Biloya resides in the area known as Yirgacheffe. The washing station accepts cherry from hundreds of neighboring small farmers that bring ripe cherry for the natural process coffee and get paid a premium for the quality delivered.

This coffee is naturally processed. This style of processing consists of picking only ripe cherries and laying them out to dry intact. The coffee must be turned consistently for it to dry evenly and to prevent mold growth. It shined on the cupping table at longer roasting times. Its high density translates to very high acidity in the cup, but lowering the heat application before first crack allows more time for sugars to caramelize and balance its inherent brightness.

The weather during harvest allows for optimal drying to produce exceptional coffee. After processing the coffee is sorted to remove excess defects to create a Grade 1 quality.

Shipping FAQ

How long will it take my order to arrive?
We ship all orders every Monday & Thursday, primarily with USPS Priority Mail (sometimes Ground Advantage for eligible orders) or FedEx. Orders typically arrive 3-5 days after shipment confirmation but may be delayed due to circumstances outside our control.

What if my order arrives damaged?
Contact us at contact@lacosechacoffee.com with your order number and a photo of the damaged item and we’ll send you a replacement and work with you to file a claim with USPS.

What if my order arrives incorrect or is missing items?
Contact us at contact@lacosechacoffee.com with your order number and a description of what is wrong or missing from your order. We’ll make sure to get the right items to you.

What if my order has been marked as delivered, but I haven't received it?
First, double-check the shipping address on your order confirmation to ensure the order was shipped to the correct address. If it’s correct, sometimes the postal carrier left the package somewhere discreet to prevent it from being stolen, such as a neighbor’s house, on your behalf or the postal carrier marked the package as delivered a few days in advance.

If the package hasn’t shown up after 5 business days (from the time the package is marked “delivered”), try contacting your local post office or emailing us at contact@lacosechacoffee.com. (We’ll try our best to help, but once the package is out of our hands, there’s not much we can do!

Can I change my address?
If you catch that you placed your order to be shipped to the wrong address, shoot us an email (contact@lacosechacoffee.com) ASAP with your order number and the correct address. If we have not yet shipped the order, we’ll be able to make the necessary change, but once the order is out for shipment, we can’t make any changes.
