How to read the information on this Site — what our origin descriptions, figures and Journal articles do and do not represent.
// Last updated: 14 May 2026 · Effective across all OCFCU web properties
The information on oromiacoffeeunion.com is published by the Oromia Coffee Farmers' Cooperative Union ("OCFCU") for general information about our union and our coffee. By using this Site you accept the terms of this Disclaimer, which should be read together with our Terms of Use.
Flavour notes, cup scores, altitudes, harvest windows and processing methods describe our origins in general and typical terms. Coffee is a natural, agricultural product and its characteristics vary from season to season and between micro-regions, cooperatives and individual lots. Nothing on this Site should be taken as a guarantee of the taste, grade, score or condition of any particular shipment. The specification of a specific lot is confirmed only on the physical sample and in the signed sales contract.
Availability depends on the harvest and on current stock. The presence of an origin on this Site is not an offer of sale and does not guarantee that it is available at any given time. Please contact our trade desk for current availability.
Figures such as the number of member farmers, cooperatives, founding dates and the share of value returned to farmers are provided in good faith as approximate, representative indicators of our union's scale and mission. They may be rounded, may change over time, and should not be relied upon as audited or exact financial or statistical statements.
Articles in our Journal and other editorial content are provided for general interest and background. They are not professional, commercial, legal or financial advice, and should not be relied upon as the basis for any specific decision. Seek appropriate professional advice for your own circumstances.
