Traditional Coffee Ceremony Workshop
የቡና ሥነ ሥርዓት
Several Addis operators host hands-on coffee ceremony sessions where you roast green beans over coals, pound them in a mukecha, brew in a clay jebena and drink the three ritual rounds — abol, tona and bereka — with popcorn and incense. It's the heart of Ethiopian hospitality, learned rather than just watched.
☀️ Local tip
Book a ~3-hour session via GetYourGuide or your hotel; afternoon slots pair well with buying a jebena of your own to take home.
