Tanzania Ngorongoro – Edelweiss Estate – AA Limited

A very crisp, complex and clean cup of coffee. Similar cup to a nice Burundi or Kenya, the cup presents the classic African tones nicely. Lemony floral notes upfront giving the cup a nice sweet crispness at the lighter roast points, a little bit of a fruity overtone. Semi-sweet chocolate spice notes balance the cup out, a bit on the herbal/tea side super light roasted but will develop into a plethora of tones as one pushes the roast towards medium or borderline dark, very full flavored coffee. Dark roasts themselves get real low acidity and fuller bodied while maintaining a smoothness not often found in some dark roasts.

Description

A very fresh arrival!

Edelweiss estate located in Oldeani, Tanzania. The 600 acre estate is perched on the slopes of the Ngorogoro Caldera (the largest unbroken caldera in the world), a protected wildlife refuge for the endangered black rhino and UNESCO World Heritage site. The estate has been in the Vohora family since the end of World War II. In recent years the Vohora family has made significant farm renovation including inter-cropping macadamia trees for shade and income diversity. Mill innovations have also vastly improved water management and quality control from picking to export. More than 50 full time employees have access to housing and land to grow food crops for their families.

Tanz AA coffees are very similar to Kenyan coffee, rich and full flavored. AA is the largest bean size and sort, like a Colombian Supremo but out of Tanzania.

Tasting Notes: A very crisp, complex and clean cup of coffee. Similar cup to a nice Burundi or Kenya, the cup presents the classic African tones nicely. Lemony floral notes upfront giving the cup a nice sweet crispness at the lighter roast points, a little bit of a fruity overtone. Semi-sweet chocolate spice notes balance the cup out, a bit on the herbal/tea side super light roasted but will develop into a plethora of tones as one pushes the roast towards medium or borderline dark, very full flavored coffee. Dark roasts themselves get real low acidity and fuller bodied while maintaining a smoothness not often found in some dark roasts.

Roasting Notes: A very versatile coffee and easy to roast. We would avoid the cinnamon roast level (super light) but anything past that will be tasty. Lighter roasts will have some acidity but provide nice clean cups. Darker roasts work great, smooth, strong with chocolate, spice, smoke in the cup profile.
