About
Ethiopian Landrace is a broad designation encompassing the vast and largely uncharacterized genetic diversity of wild and semi-wild Arabica growing in Ethiopia's highland forests. Unlike formally selected cultivars, landraces evolve through natural selection and farmer management over generations. These coffees form the backbone of Ethiopian coffee production and represent an irreplaceable genetic reservoir for the future of Arabica breeding worldwide.
