It’s been a while since we’ve had a Tanzanian coffee in the roastery and we’re very excited about this one with its tasty blackberry, jammy notes making it both perfect for cold brew and super creamy with milk.
In 1992 Vera and Rudolph Meyer bought a run down old coffee farm in Karatu, near Tanzania’s Ngorongoro crater. The farm, Ngila, hadn’t been operational in decades and was full of holes, overgrowth, and the trees had been demolished by free-roaming herds of elephants and buffalo.
Vera and Rudolph lovingly brought the farm back to life with the construction of new offices, a wet mill, workshops and an 8 hectare wildlife corridor to preserve the migration paths.
Today a year round team of 30 help Vera with the farm which now runs on solar power, uses organic pesticides like to***co and native wasps, and has been planted with indigenous trees to combat soil erosion and foster reforestation.
