Congo Luki Zamba

Roaster notes

This Canephora from Lukula in western Congo defies expectations of the species through careful handling — cherries ferment sealed without oxygen before being washed clean. The cup runs dark and dried-fruit driven, offering black tea, Aschanti chocolate, almond croissant, raisin and apricot with a baker's chocolate finish. Low acidity meets heavy body.
