ALO COFFEE
Alo, producer of award-winning Ethiopian specialty coffee, grown at altitude and crafted with care.
Alo Coffee was born from a dream and a leap into the unknown. For years, Tamiru, a former university lecturer and electrical engineer, worked in the coffee industry. He observed firsthand the challenges of a sector where quality was too often neglected and producers struggled to be fairly paid. Despite his experience, the injustices of low prices and undervalued labor long dissuaded him from launching his own venture.
Everything changed in 2020, when Ethiopia hosted its first Cup of Excellence. The event was a revelation: it proved that exceptional coffee could be celebrated and rewarded. Alongside his wife, Messi, Tamiru set out on a clear mission: to demonstrate that Sidama coffees could compete with the best in the world.
In 2021, against all odds, their very first participation, a batch carefully prepared in their home village of Alo, in Bensa, won the Ethiopian Cup of Excellence. This success confirmed their belief: it is not only tradition, but passion and rigor that forge excellence.
Today, Alo Coffee remains driven by this same ambition: to offer the finest coffees from Ethiopia, to defy expectations, to honor the producers who make it all possible, and to share with the world the untapped potential of Ethiopian coffee.
