METAD then processes the fruit intact and dries these little purple orbs on raised beds for 6-8 weeks.

Backstory
Our two latest releases in October are from Guji (Kirite aka Disco Marmalade) and Gedeb (Beriti aka Strawberry Sundae) respectively, & have something pretty neat in common – They are both lots from outgrower communities that work with METAD, who have a remarkable history as a company, producer and exporter in Ethiopia.
New subscription signups and orders to the USA are paused as we navigate the end to the de minimus exemption to the US on August 29th, which we rely on to ship to our US based folks. Without this in place, the recipient will face tariffs & duties (as of August 2025 the IEEPA tariff rate imposed by the US for Canada is 35%). We're in communication with all shipping carriers to bring clarity to this fast moving situation. Thanks and if you have a question please reach out.
Head's up: We roast to order - Please get your order in by Wednesday AM for same week (Thursday) shipping.* 3 bags or 1kg+ ships free in Canada and the US. Thanks folks <3
