Kesh Kesh is an Eritrean word that refers to the motion of coffee roasting on a pan, during the roasting process in the traditional Eritrean Coffee Ceremony.

The coffee ceremony is an old tradition ritual that serves as a vital opportunity for family and friends to connect and build their community bond.

We engage clients by educating them on the coffee ceremony from the first green coffee bean step to the last cup.

We distribute our roasted coffee beans to local and international markets.
