Adara Keramo
Background
Adara Keramo Station, founded in 2020, is located at a high altitude of 2200–2400 meters in Bura Wereda and sources its coffee from the nearby highland kebeles of Hamasho and Keramo. The station is named after the local kebele "Keramo," a Sidamic word with two meanings: one refers to a place situated around or under a mountain, and the other means "climbing a mountain." These dual meanings reflect the station’s elevated, mountainous terrain. Known for its pristine environment and exceptional altitude, Adara Keramo is supported by 184 dedicated coffee suppliers and farmers who contribute to its high-quality coffee production.
