Known to be one of the most coveted coffees in all of Western Ethiopia, after twelve years of production at Nano Challa, we were beyond thrilled to get our hands on a bit of this exceptional coffee produced and processed at their sister (or mimi) mill—Nano Genji. Intense and lively, this sparklingly delicious coffee is a testament to the work put in by the 600-plus members of the Kata Muduga cooperative union during the growing, picking, processing, and beyond.

Hey there, coffee adventurer! 🚀 Time to buckle up, because you're about to take a detour to the heart of Western Ethiopia. 🌍 Ever have the beloved Nano Challa? 👫 Well, after 12 glorious years of coffee production at the top of the top, Creature Coffee is thrilled to tell you that we're working with their brand new sibling mill, Nano Genji! 🎉
Just like any proud sibling, Nano Genji followed in the footsteps of Nano Challa. Its members were so awesome at production and processing, their reputation exploded! 💥 So much so, they had to open a new mill a few miles away 🏭, decking it out with shiny new Penagos gear and dozens of drying beds to keep up with their superstar status. 🌟
Now, with 630 members doing the coffee cha-cha 💃🕺 between the two stations, they're all set for more growth, more success, and (most importantly) more absolutely scrumptious coffee ☕️ this year and beyond.
And let us tell you, Nano Genji has some serious flavor fireworks 🎆 to show off. Imagine a sweet rush of freshly picked apricots, fizzing into a silky, tea-like finish 🫖. It's like a flavor party in your mouth, and it's all thanks to the hard work and dedication that goes into each step of the process. 🎊 So, ready to explore new flavor frontiers with Nano Genji #14, what we're calling Mimi Muduga? We thought so! 🚀
