There's coffee and then there's Ethiopian coffee and once you've drunk the latter in a buna ceremony, your tastebuds won't settle for anything less. Today I participated in a buna ceremony and while I've been raving about the other coffee I've been drinking since I arrived here, it really does pale in comparison to the traditionally prepared coffee.
Buna is the Amharic word for coffee and a buna ceremony is a tradition that dates back to ancient times. The buna ceremony is to Ethiopia what the tea ceremony is to Japan.
