Danche, situated in Chelbesa, Gedeo, is a washing station that acquires cherries from 400 farmers. These farmers achieve impressive yields due to the fertile soil and effective farming methods employed. Notably, Danche holds organic certification. The term "Dhilgee" translates to "bloody red" in the Oromiffa language, embodying the essence of coffees from this washing station—characterized by light florals, red berries, purple fruit, and an overall round and sweet profile.

In the village of Worka Chelbesa in Gedeb, Nordic Approach and its partners oversee two washing stations: Chelbesa and Danche. The coffee featured here originates from the Danche Washing Station, sourcing cherries from 742 farmers with an average land size of 1-2 hectares. These farms are situated at high altitudes ranging from 2000 to 2300 meters above sea level.
