Tanzania Acacia Hills

Description

Farm: Acacia Hills Process: Washed Elevation: 1,750-1,950 MASL Varietal: Kent AB Tasting Notes: Orange, Black Cherry, Brown Sugar, and Chamomile We are thrilled to bring our first-ever Tanzanian offering to the table, and we couldn't think of a better way to begin than with a stunning Kent variety from Leon and Aideen Christianakis at Acacia Hills, sourced through our partners at TYPICA. Nestled on the slopes of Mount Oldeani in Tanzania's Karatu district, Acacia Hills sits between 1,750 and 1,950 meters above sea level, bordering the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Leon is a third-generation coffee farmer who has spent nearly two decades transforming this estate into one of Tanzania's leading specialty producers, planting quality-driven varieties and refining his post-harvest processes with meticulous care. This fully washed Kent is pulped within hours of harvest, dry fermented for up to 40 hours, and slow-dried on raised beds for no less than 15 days — a level of intention you can taste in the cup. With tasting notes of Orange, Black Cherry, Brown Sugar, and Chamomile, this coffee is smooth, balanced, and quietly complex. Truly a cup that rewards you more with every sip. Through TYPICA's transparent sourcing model, we're proud to connect directly with Leon and Aideen's work and bring a piece of northern Tanzania to you!
