OUR MISSION

A Legacy of Buna, Rooted in the Highlands

Luban Coffee is born from generations of farming tradition in the birthplace of coffee itself. We partner directly with smallholder families across the Sidamo, Yirgacheffe, and Harrar highlands to deliver rare single-origin beans — nurtured at altitude, hand-picked at peak ripeness, and sun-dried under the warm Ethiopian sky.

Every sip honours the ritual of Buna Tetu — the Ethiopian ceremony in which coffee is slowly roasted, brewed, and shared among friends. We bring that same patience, warmth, and hospitality to the world.

  • Single-Origin Beans

    Traceable lots from distinct growing regions, each bearing its own signature flavour profile.

  • Direct Trade

    Fair, transparent partnerships — farmers earn above market price for every pound produced.

  • Sustainable Farming

    Shade-grown, organic practices and forest stewardship for generations to come.

  • Rich Heritage

    Harvested from 1,500–2,200m altitude — where wild arabica first took root 1,000+ years ago.

ETHIOPIAN COFFEE HERITAGE

A Journey of Buna Through Time

From the ancient forests of Kaffa to the specialty cafés of today — follow the remarkable story of the world's most revered coffee.

  1. ~ 9th Century

    The Legend of Kaldi

    A goat-herder named Kaldi discovers his flock dancing after nibbling the bright red berries of a wild shrub in the forests of Kaffa — the birthplace of arabica coffee, and the origin of our name.

  2. ~ 15th Century

    The Buna Ceremony is Born

    In every home, the ritual of Buna takes shape: beans are pan-roasted over open coals, ground in a wooden mukecha, brewed three times in a clay jebena, and served to guests — still practised at every Luban family farm today.

  3. 1950s – Present

    The Specialty Revolution

    Sidamo, Yirgacheffe, and Harrar coffees capture the world's attention with their jasmine, bergamot, blueberry, and wine-like notes. Ethiopia is now the world's 5th-largest producer — and home to 40% of all wild arabica biodiversity.
