Coffee by Origin

NOTE: All of our premium Arabica coffees are roasted to City+ to Full City roasts, showing minimal-to-no surface oils….we want all of the flavor to stay in the beans until the coffee is ground! Despite the additional descriptors, the first flavor and aroma you'll think of is "COFFEE".

Tanzania Ruvuma AA Light-Roast

Country of Origin: Tanzania

TIP: You can save products to your favorites list if you log in

Tanzania lies in one of the richest coffee-producing regions of Central Southeast Africa, which comprises Kenya, Burundi, Rwanda and Uganda. Ruvuma (named for the Ruvuma River which forms its southern border with Mozambique) is the southernmost region in Tanzania and includes Lake Nyasa at its western edge. Coffee from this region is from several small family-owned farms which are worked by hand
Tanzania is renowned for peaberry production but we haven't found one to our liking for a while.

This AA, grown around an average 1600 meters (n5 and n39 bourbon varietals) can take a dark roast profile, but we feel it's most special at the light-medium roast. There's an unusually long apricot and cocoa finish which is quite distinctive!
