Finally a really good Fair Trade certified organic Tanzania coffee has become available for us to offer you. We were only able to purchase a limited amount, so this one will not last long! The beans are Bourbon and Keint varieties, grown by members of KNCU, Kilimanjaro Native Cooperative Union, a cooperative of indigenous farmers of the northeastern Kilimanjaro region of Tanzania. Farmers participate in the co-op democratically, and each year they elect delegates from among co-op members to implement policies and programs. The coffee revenues have helped to support the founding and operation of schools for farmers’ children and funded an organic production program. This coffee has a rich complex flavor and is well balanced. It is full bodied with a medium light acidity, a somewhat earthy African sweetness, and a hint of vanilla smoothness. We recommend a medium to a Vienna or Full City roast.
