The Story
The Mafinga Hills in Zambia’s Northern Province are home to the country’s highest peaks, where altitude and ancient volcanic soils help produce the sweet citrus flavor profiles that characterize this single estate coffee.
You’ll find that the sharp acidic edge of East African coffees is often softened somewhat in their Zambian counterparts – making the latter perfect for those in search of a more restrained flavours. In the typical Zambian cup, you’ll find floral and citrus notes, with a twist of nuts or berries. The better specimens will give more unusual flavours, like cucumber, vanilla, maple and butter.

The Story
Colombia’s size alone certainly contributes to the different profiles that its 20 coffee-growing departments (out of a total 32) express in the cup, but even within growing regions there are plentiful variations due to the microclimates created by mountainous terrain, wind patterns, proximity to the Equator, and, of course, differences in varieties and processing techniques.
The southwestern departments of Narino, Cauca, and Huila tend to have higher altitude farms, which comes through in more complex acidity and heightened florality in the profiles.

The Story
Coffee was planted in Costa Rica in the late 1700s, and it was the first Central American country to have a fully established coffee industry; by the 1820s, coffee was a major agricultural export with great economic significance to the population. Costa Rica contributes less than 1% of the world’s coffee production. One way that Costa Rica has hoped to differentiate itself among coffee-growing nations is through the diversity of profiles in its growing regions, despite the country’s relatively small geographical size. Tarrazu might be the most famous of the regions: Its high altitudes contribute to its coffees’ crisp acidity.

It got its name from combining the names of the two varieties. As it originates from the variety of tall high yielding Maragogype Coffee trees and a variety made up of the small and strong Pacas coffee trees, the result is a medium sized plant with rich foliage.
