TANZANIA MAJINJA ESTATE AA
A full, fruity body, this African coffee grown close to the Kilimanjaro Mountain region in Tanzania boasts notes of orange peel with a long finish of deep dark chocolate and a hint of butterscotch cream.
This arabica is sourced from the Manjinja Farmer Group; made up of 20 farmers in the Ibembwe, Msia, Mbozi and Songwe regions, grown between 1,600 and 1,700 meters.
The name Majinja is derived from the name of the clan of the owner of the factory. In the 2015-2016 season, interest from neighboring farmers to join together to produce fully washed coffees began what is known today as the Majinja Farmer Group.
Coffee is fully washed with water from the Tumkaki river, fermented in tanks, graded based on density, soaked in tanks and dried on raised beds in the dappled sunshine. The parchment is then handpicked on the drying tables to remove defects.
Perfect as a straight espresso or laced with silken foamed whole milk.
