TANZANIA PEABERRY

 

Small, independent, farms account for about 90% of Tanzania’s coffee production. Many farms have been damaged by large populations of buffalo and elephants. As a result, estate owners and farmers have spent a great deal of time in the last decade building game channels on their farms to allow large animals to safely pass through without interfering with coffee production.

Kitamu means “sweet” in Swahili, and is used to describe a delicious taste, like this coffee, which is grown in the District of Karatu. Due to its proximity to the nearby volcanic Ngorongoro Crater, the area’s mineral-rich volcanic soil and shade provided by tall banana trees create ideal conditions for growing arabica coffee.

Cupping Notes: Cocoa, Brown Spice and Stone Fruit, with a Medium Acidity, Full Body, Tangerine and Bright
