Luyombe Washing Station • Washed-Processed Peaberry Bourbon

Recommended Roast Level Full City Plus (Dark) Tasting Notes This coffee really creates a delicious spread of smooth, sweet, chocolatey notes. There’s kind of a subculture around Tanzanian peaberry coffees and we understand why. This coffee presents a perfectly balanced terroir-forward profile with great touches of complexity that don’t detract from the chocolate forward notes. I’m developing this coffee a lot more than other coffees, because this bean can really take it. Highly recommend as a daily driver! -Jonathan Luyombe Coffee Production Luyombe is a coffee-producing area in Tanzania, known for cultivating high-quality Arabica beans. The region's coffee is typically grown at elevations ranging from 1,000 to 2,000 meters above sea level, benefiting from fertile volcanic soils and a temperate climate ideal for coffee cultivation. Luyombe is known for their washed Peaberries. Peaberry beans are unique, as they develop as a single, rounded bean within the coffee cherry, unlike the typical two flat-sided beans. This natural mutation occurs in about 5-10% of coffee cherries and is often associated with a more concentrated flavor profile. Tanzanian coffees, including those from Luyombe, are known for their bright acidity and complex flavor profiles. Common tasting notes include black currant, chocolate, and a sweet, fruity aftertaste. The coffee industry in Tanzania is vital to the country's economy, with approximately 90% of farms managed by smallholder farmers.
