Ethiopia Tokuma
The Tokuma Group Blend represents the shared work of a remarkable circle of smallholder farmers in Western Ethiopia’s Agaro region. The Tokuma producers first came together informally to exchange agronomy practices and support each other in marketing coffee. Today, they have grown into a formal collective, united by their commitment to quality, innovation, and transparency.
This blend is composed of lots from multiple Tokuma members: Mensur Abahika, Nesru Aba Nura, Mohammed Aba Nura, and Biya Faris. Each farmer carefully manages cultivation and processing on their own land, ensuring excellent traceability. Coffees are dried slowly on raised beds for around three weeks, yielding sweetness, clarity, and expressive fruit character.
The emergence of Tokuma reflects a broader shift in Ethiopian coffee. Regulatory changes have allowed more producers to obtain export licenses and sell directly, bypassing the traditional ECX system that once blurred farm-level identity. Tokuma farmers have seized this opportunity, highlighting the unique character of their coffees while securing better compensation for their work.
Osito Coffee has partnered with the Tokuma group for more than six years, supporting their transformation from a close-knit circle of friends to a leading force in Jimma specialty coffee. This blend embodies that journey—celebrating both the individual talents of its members and the collective strength of the group.

Guatemala San Patricio
Guadalupe Alberto (Beto) Reyes Aguilar and his family have a clear love and understanding for coffee, and a strong respect for the natural environment at the estate that they own and operate. Located around an hours’ drive to the east of Guatemala City in the small town of Palencia, their estate sits at an altitude of between 1600 and 1800 metres above sea level. At 60 hectares, El Limon is the largest plot of the San Patricio farm which also comprises El Morito (9.5 hectares) and Bella Vista (24 hectares) and 3 other smaller lots - El Encinal, El Calahuar and La Castilla.
The family endeavour to manage San Patricio’s farms as ‘organically’ as they can, and although they are not certified organic - they follow organic principles. The farm mostly produces Bourbon and Caturra, with Pacamara being the result of experimental crop cultivation. Overall, the family are motivated by and focused on ensuring that their farms take extraordinary care at every step – from picking and processing to shipping and agronomy, and they are always experimenting with new varietals.
Again, another stellar example of the team at San Patricio Estate skills at the washed process.
