Tanzania coffees are rich and rewarding - there is something rather special about the Blue Mountain varietal.
In some respects, Tanzania coffees share similar characteristics to their neighbouring Kenya and we are evaluating Tanzania coffees for purchase, we look for similar cup profiles and elements. Where the Kenyans have soaring acidity and winey finish, Tanzanian coffees can be more balanced and nuanced with greater body and a longer finish.

Similar in cup profile to our best Kenyan coffees, this amazing Tanzania premium estate coffee delivers a clean lemony acidity with deep chocolate and black current notes.
Balanced and juicy finish will delight.
Perhaps one of the most versatile coffees in our portfolio - able to easily span most brew methods.
A highly respectably 87.5 point AA grade micro lot from the Mondul Estate in Tanzania.
We particularly enjoyed the complexity of this coffee as it cooled - making for a great filter or slow brew beverage.
Rich blackcurrant and swiss chocolate notes with a refreshing lemony acid.
In a milk-based espresso, this would have to be one of my faves.
