Arabica from Ethiopia is not just a drink, it is part of the national culture and social rituals.

Coffee ceremonies (Buna Kenya) are an important element of Ethiopian hospitality. An invitation to this event is a gesture of great respect and friendship. Family and guests gather together. During the ceremony, coffee beans are roasted over an open fire, then ground and brewed in a special clay pot. Roasting the coffee beans over a fire in traditional pots gives the drink a special aroma and emphasizes the connection with nature. Sometimes spices such as cardamom or cinnamon are added to it.

This process takes a lot of time, but it is also a great opportunity to communicate and strengthen social ties.

An important aspect is that several cups are served during the coffee ceremony. This symbolizes hospitality and generosity. The first cup is called “abet”, the second is “kedjat”, and the third is “barka”. Each cup has a special taste and aroma, and is a symbol of different stages of life.

In some Ethiopian regions, coffee is part of religious rituals, used for symbolic prayers or during communal celebrations.

The high quality of coffee beans has a major impact on the country’s economy. As a symbol of national pride and cultural identity, it is associated with purity, quality and unique taste, and has deep cultural significance for Ethiopia, connecting the country’s past, present and future through traditions, rituals and social ties.
