WHY WE LOVE IT: This African coffee offering gives a unique flavor profile presenting complexity and consistency. 

REGION: Mbeya

ALTITUDE: 1,765 m

PROCESSING: washed

VARIETIES: Blue Mountain, Bourbon, KP423, N39

This is the second year we have featured coffee from the northern Mondul estates. This coffee is balanced, round and sweet, finishing with a pop of acidity. We taste cola, shortbread, and an acidity/sweetness combo akin to pineapple upside down cake or strawberry rhubarb pie. The fully washed processing of this coffee also gives us a complex texture that will trick you into drinking cup after cup without realizing it (not a problem in our estimation, though).   

MORE INFO

Located in the highlands extending from Mt. Meru in northern Tanzania, Mondul Estate has been producing some of the finest coffees since it was established in 1931. With over 100 employees who maintain time-honored traditions in coffee production, combined with cutting-edge practices, their consistent focus on quality year over year is one of the things that keeps us coming back time after time.

Within eight hours of harvest, the coffee is pulped and set in fermentation tanks for between one and one and a half days, with a mid-wash done at the halfway point. Afterwards, the coffee is placed on raised beds for three weeks and dried to ten and a half percent moisture content in parchment. Once it is delivered to the dry mill, it is then sorted and graded, guaranteeing a level of quality and consistency that can be tasted in every cup.

FAQ

  • When you place an order from us, our highest priority is sending you the freshest coffee possible. You deserve it, and frankly so do our world class coffee producers and their coffees.

    Read our blog on the benefits of fresh roasted coffee to learn more. 

    • If you order on Monday - Thursday before 3:00pm CST, your order will ship out the next business day.
    • If you order on Monday - Thursday after 3:00pm CST, your order will ship out the day following the next business day. (ex: orders placed at 4:00pm CST on a Monday will ship on Wednesday).
    • If you order Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, at any time, your order will ship out on Monday, barring holidays. 

  • We offer three different grind sizes on the vast majority of our coffee offerings: drip, espresso, and French press.

    • Use drip grind if you plan on making your coffee using a coffee machine, in a pour over brewer, or if you want to try a newer way to make your trusty French press.
    • Use espresso grind if you have an espresso machine at home. This grind will be very fine and will over-extract (in other words, taste bitter and chalky) in other methods.
    • Use French press grind if you are making a coffee in the more traditional French Press method, or making cold brew, or do very large batches in a Chemex (greater than 60 grams of coffee). 

  • Please visit our brewing page here.  Coffee brewing is as much an art as it is a science, and it might take a few tries for you to find a sweet-spot that matches your taste preference. We recommend not getting too lost in the "right" way to brew, but instead focus on what you like and try to educate yourself on some best practices. And then just take it from there! 

    That said, we offer several how-to's for many popular brewers:

  • Our blends run from medium-light to dark. You can get a full breakdown of the blends in our Blend Buying Guide.

    Core Blends include:

    700 is our medium-roast core espresso blend that also tastes great as drip.

    Cafe Kaldi has been our house blend since 1994. It contains coffee from Ethiopia that gives it a touch of complexity.

    Dancing Goats Blend is a little more developed and gives a bit bolder of a cup.

    Highlander Grogg is a fan-favorite flavored coffee.
