Bruno Souza, who visited us at the roastery a couple of years ago is the owner of Fazenda Esperança. This family-owned farm has been under the Souza family's care since 1969 and is nestled on the high arid plateau of Cerrado Mineiro in the town of Campos Altos, Minas Gerais. With a rich history of coffee production dating back to the 1860s, Bruno's expertise and dedication have contributed to the farm's success.
Korongo is sourced from a network of washing stations across Mbozi, Mbeya & Mbinga, in Tanzania’s Southern Highlands.
Vertical-integration and whole-harvest sourcing enables our importer to source Korongo at an accessible price that supports roaster success and producer resilience. Korongo displays the best of Tanzanian flavor profiles with a full body, pronounced sweetness and light acidity.
Farmers hand-harvest and process the cherries on their own farms, in general, cherries are pulped using either an eco-pulper or standard pulper and then fermented. Following fermentation, parchment is dried on raised beds for 14-20 days.
Tasting Notes: Lemon zest with dried fruit sweetness and smooth dark chocolate body and long lasting finish.
About The Coffee
Our popular house blend is back!
We've carefully selected and sourced our beans to create a flavour profile that will appeal to discerning palates on a longer run seasonal basis. The Cure is delicious, with an excellent balance of body and acidity, perfect as an espresso or long black, but also delicious in milk as a hot coffee or an iced drink. It's designed to be easy to dial in on both stovetop moka pots or prosumer espresso machines (Sage, Gaggia, Breville, Pavoni, etc).
We know you're always on the hunt for the next great coffee experience, and we're confident that The Cure will not disappoint.
