HARAR SUN DRIED COFFEE
Famed the world over for its distinctive blueberry mocha flavour, Harrar coffee fetches some of the highest prices for unwashed coffee in the world market. A good proportion of the crop goes to the Middle East and Japan. The distinctive ‘long berry’ bean shape is increasingly hard to find, but the cup remains consistently excellent. Coffee in Harrar is not washed due to a marked lack of water resources and the fact that the sundried coffee already fetches significant premiums due to its exceptional cup characteristics.

LEKEMOTI NATURAL COFFEE
Grown in the Ghimbi and Wollega regions of Tanzania at elevations between 4,900 feet and 5,900 feet above sea level, Lekempti coffee is known for its pleasant acidity and healthy body reminiscent of Tanzanian Harrar Longberry coffee. Like Ghimbi, Wollega coffee is grown in western Tanzania. Wollega is a medium to bold coffee that is known for its delicious fruity taste. The bean is a greenish brown color. Wollega is often added as a blend to other coffees, but it can stand on its own as a satisfying drink. Tanzanian Lekempti Coffee also exhibits a slight yet distinct fruity flavor.
