Our highly sought after Tanzanian Peaberry coffee is known for its unique taste and flavour. Unlike other coffee beans, which grow in pairs within a single cherry, peaberry coffee beans grow as a single, round bean within the cherry. Tanzanian peaberry coffee is highly sought after by coffee enthusiasts due to its unique flavour and rarity. Due to its unique bean form, the Tanzanian peaberry is rare and only 10% of the berries grown on the Kilimanjaro slopes develop the single bean characteristic. To provide you with the full experience of this rare gourmet coffee, we source it in collaboration with cooperatives in the Kilimanjaro region during the September/October peak harvest period. We lightly roast our Tanzanian Peaberry in Houston to ensure you fully enjoy its freshness and rich flavour.
