This coffee originates from the southern highlands of Tanzania and is a rare peaberry.

Peaberry coffees are very rare, occurring in only 5% or less crops, and are associated in particular with Tanzania.  A peaberry type coffee bean is one where the coffee cherry has a single bean inside it rather than the more common two beans.  It is more oval or pea shaped, rather than looking like half an oval as most coffee beans do.  It is suggested that peaberry type beans make for a more complex and acidic coffee, with a slightly lighter body.

This coffee was grown in fertile volcanic soil that is lightly acidic, rich in nitrogen, potassium and magnesium.

The recommended roast of a Tanzanian coffee bean is a medium roast.

Blonde coffee is a coffee bean roasted from a light to medium roast coming from Latin America and east Africa.
