With high altitudes, volcanic soils and a humid climate, Tanzania is every bit as good for producing coffee as its neighbours Uganda, Kenya and Burundi, but this is our first time getting to try it! These coffee beans, roasted by the good guys at Hundred House, have been produced by the Isaiso Agricultural Marketing Cooperative Society in south west Tanzania’s Mbozi District. This co-op helps with resources and marketing so that farmers in the region can increase their yield. Their process is incredibly labour intensive and skilled involving hand-picking, sorting and peeling.

Rich in flavour but clean and balanced, this washed lot is bringing all the autumn vibes with notes of toffee apple, blackcurrant and cinnamon.
