Founded in 2006 by brothers Assefa and Manda Dukamo, Daye Bensa has grown from a small coffee trading business into one of Ethiopia's most respected coffee producers and exporters.

Based in Ethiopia's Sidama region, the company operates its own farms, washing stations and processing facilities and works with more than 2,000 smallholder farmers. Through continued investment in quality, processing and sustainability, Daye Bensa has earned an international reputation for producing exceptional Ethiopian coffees.

Karamo Station is located in the highlands of Ethiopia's Sidama region, working with approximately 381 smallholder farmers from the surrounding area.

Fertile soils, high elevation and favourable growing conditions allow cherries to mature slowly, contributing to the area's distinctive cup profile. Recognised for its exceptional quality, coffee from Keramo received international attention through the Cup of Excellence in 2020.

Expect a vibrant and expressive Ethiopian coffee, with bright acidity, delicate florals and lively fruit character.

Monastery Coffee

A small-batch roaster of traceable specialty coffee based in Adelaide, South Australia. Monastery roast to highlight what the producer has already coaxed from each coffee, and to make sure you know exactly who grew it. The range moves with the seasons: approachable Seasonal Blends, a rich Decaf Blend, and standout single origins and experimental processes from Colombia, Kenya, Brazil and beyond. Every order is placed directly with Monastery for immediate, fresh delivery across Australia. Buy a single bag, or set up a coffee subscription for an ongoing discount.
