Walking Through an Ethiopian Native Coffee Forest

The origin of arabica coffee is in the forest zones of the Kaffa region in western Ethiopia, and Mankira is in the heart of it.

It took many trips for me to finally see real forest coffee like this in such a pristine area. This is a casual self shot video, but I hope the beauty of his place overcomes the quality of my camerawork.

We had traveled out to Mankira several times since, whenever we stay in Bonga town (at the lovely CoffeeLands hotel!)
