International coffee honchos Starbucks and the Government of Ethiopia have come to a (tentative) agreement in their battle over coffee ownership and naming rights, reports the U.K.’s Guardian newspaper.  

     At issue was the right to use the Yirgacheffe and Sidamo names in marketing, with the Ethiopian government arguing that retaining the right to use those names would help provide millions of dollars of needed revenue to one of the poorest countries on Earth.  

     The details will be revealed later this month, but according to the article the two parties agreed to “sign a licensing, distribution and marketing agreement that recognised …..Ethiopia’s speciality coffees.”
