Origin and Plantation
This coffee is produced by a cooperation called “MUUNGANO”, which means “solidarity” in Swahili. The various tribes of the Congo were divided by wars. Since its foundation in 2009, MUUNGANO has grown from 350 to more than 4,000 members (as of 2015). Thanks to this cooperation, the tribes are now working together again and thus ensure a better future for their families. The Organisation produces one of Congo’s best coffee specialities thanks to their great passion for quality.
Character and Taste
A slight hint of spiciness is united with some delicate citrus notes and hints of berries. This coffee is a unique experience, which will surely win over any coffee lover.
PARTICULARITIES
Coffee is mainly cultivated by smallholders who use Robusta. It contains a lot of caffeine and is often used in blends with beans that are milder. As opposed to many other Robusta, the one from Congo lacks the typical “burned” taste, which is why its overall impression is much more harmonious.
