How we got started

Unroasted Green Coffee is a necessity for the East African community who have been roasting coffee in their homes for many generations. Seattle is considered a major coffee-hub, but even in Seattle, unroasted green coffee is at times difficult to come across. Founder, Efrem Fesaha began his journey into coffee after seeing the East African community in Seattle struggle to find quality and consistency in their coffee.

What is the East African Coffee Ceremony

The East African coffee ceremony is the #1 way to consume coffee daily for many tribes in East Africa. The coffee ceremony requires green unroasted coffee being pan roasted and brewed in the clay pot known as a Jebena. The coffee ceremony is performed often in peoples' homes for personal consumption and as a sign of hospitality for guests. Similar to most East African kids who have grown up experiencing the coffee ceremony throughout their childhood, Efrem's is no different and it is from there his passion grew to launch Boon Boona Coffee.
