The Catalyst Trade-branded community lot Dur Feres (meaning Wild Horse, in Amharic) serves as the ultimate ambassador for Ethiopian coffee. Embodying the terroir of the region it hails from—in this case, Guji — it shines equally as the backbone of a blend or on its own as an approachable, fruity Single Origin.
Our Dur Feres community lots, regardless of Ethiopian region they represesent, exemplify our sourcing ethos: Buy it All. Catalyst Trade invests in both coffee excellence and producer prosperity because we don’t believe the two are mutually exclusive.
When you drop Dur Feres into your hopper — no matter how large or small — not only are you preparing to roast an accessible, award-winning coffee, you're contributing to the long-term success of our partner producers in Ethiopia.
