NEW SPRING SINGLE ORIGIN COFFEE FROM TANZANIA

The first of three Single Origins released this October 2021, is a fully washed coffee is sourced from Kilimanjaro AA, Tanzania.

What is “Single Origin” you ask? 

When referring to coffee, single origin means the coffee beans have come from one region, as opposed to a blend. A roaster can then highlight specific flavours that are unique to certain farms or regions. This opens up an incredible world of coffee flavour with every sip. 

Introducing our Spring Single Origin – Kilimanjaro AA, Tanzania

This coffee is sourced from the Kilimanjaro Plantation, which is one of the oldest and most well established coffee plantations in Tanzania. This farm and its coffee benefit from its position on the southern slopes of Mt Kilimanjaro. The cool climate & well irrigated land offers nutrient rich soil, due to its combination of glacial water run-off and volcanic soil. This plantation has roughly 1.2 million coffee trees and promotes harmony with the native habitat, with self-sufficient water sources, wildlife corridors to ensure as little disruption to native fauna. This plantation also has a replenishment strategy to replant trees to offset cleared growing areas.
