What's in the Box?
Science of Coffee
Tinley Manor, KZN North Coast
Ethiopia Gololcha single origin.
This coffee is one of our very first relationship coffee’s from Gololcha Ethiopia. It is farmed mostly in semi-forest and garden coffee settings under two or three canopies of shade. It is a “natural” or dry processed coffee. Therefore we roast it quite dark to do justice to the beautiful deep blueberry, dark chocolate and almond flavour.
Motherland
JHB
Rwanda & Ethiopian blend
A firm favourite with the Motherland patrons, this dual blend of Rwandan and Ethiopian Sidamo beans is a winner. This coffee displays a rich, earthy body with hints of caramel
and chocolate, followed by a floral, citrus finish with bright acidity.
Heavenly Coffee Roasters
Centurion
Brazil, Colombia & Ethiopian blend.
The St.Paul's blend is made from a careful selection of beans from Ethiopia, Brazil and Colombia. It is a very smooth coffee, with a fruity taste and a very pleasant aftertaste and medium acidity. Recommended for both espresso and filter style brews.
Craft Coffee Roastery
Marshalltown
Craft Blend
Ethically sourced specialty grade beans – That’s the basis for all of the Marshalltown range of coffees, which are expertly roasted by Craft Coffee Roasters in Newtown, Johannesburg. Their signature ‘Craft Blend’ is made up of single estate Central and South American beans. An exceptionally well balanced coffee, with hints of milk chocolate and a mild citric acidity accompanied by a delicious buttery mouthfeel. Simply delicious.
Firebird Coffee Works
Durban
Tanzania Tarime -
Brown sugar sweetness, milk chocolate, middle of the pallet has dried apricot, with a long finish. Its a big coffee!
This specialty coffee comes from the Tarime district of Tanzania. Tarime District is one of the six districts of the Mara Region of Tanzania, East Africa. It was previously known as the "North Mara District". It is bordered from the north to east by the Kenyan districts of Migori, Trans Mara and Kisii, and to the east by the Maasai Mara game reserve. To the south it is bordered across the Mara River by the Musoma Urban, Musoma Rural and Serengeti districts, and to the west by Rorya District.
Ambeans Boutique Roastery
Somerset West
Espresso blend
This is the blend that Ambeans uses for espresso's and cappuccinno's at all 5 of their retail branches located in the Western Cape. It is full bodied, rich and has a complex acidity. We love the boldness and the balance!
