It must be the best place to buy pizza in the world, I thought.Many years later I finally saw the Leaning Tower. I knew then that it was Pisa and no pizza.

Ethiopians feel good about their coffee, and enjoying a drink with friends is a long tradition.Some people say the climate produces quality beans. Morton Wennersgarrd is a coffee importer进口商.

But before international experts come to taste, coffee beans are studied in small coffee laboratories. Helen Assefa, a lab technician, describes the process, “When the coffee comes to the lab, we assess (评价) its quality first by recording the details. Then we weigh the moisture (水分) level and we examine the beans for analysis. After that we grind (磨碎) the coffee beans and taste the samples. At the end we check for defective beans. Mubarik Abaoli is a lab worker. He says that testing is a very difficult and long process. “We select out the defects by hand. And we select out the defect according to the defect types.Ethiopia has got a lot of money by exporting coffee to more than 120 countries.
