Mullugeta Muntasha grew up in Bursa, a village where coffee cultivation is still relatively new. As a young man, he worked as a truck driver in Arsi, transporting cherry to private washing stations, before later becoming a collector supplying the central market. As climate shifts made coffee more viable in Bursa, and with support from the local agricultural office, planting expanded in the area. In 2021, Mullugeta returned home and established his own drying station, Dawencho.
That very same year, he placed second in the Cup of Excellence with the Dawencho farmer group and sixth under his own name. In 2022, four of the competition’s top ten coffees were processed at Dawencho, including the first-place lot from Legesse Botola, Mullugeta’s brother-in-law. Today, the station processes coffee from Mullugeta’s own farm as well as from neighboring growers, and has become one of the clearest signs of how quickly quality has advanced in this newer coffee-producing area.
