Processing Detials:
Coffee quality continues to rise as companies like Neumann Kaffee Gruppe (NKG) invest in infrastructure, which includes collective mills called CPUs (central processing unit) where cherry production from small farms is received and then carefully sorted, depulped, fermented, washed and dried.  Centrally located CPUs process coffee more consistently and ensure better quality, which results in better prices from the international market and more income for farmers.  The centralized mills also reduce the burden on farmers to invest and maintain their own processing equipment.

Peaberry Details:
This peaberry lot is sourced from farms located in Tanzania’s southern highlands where the bulk of production comes from small family owned farms consisting of just a few acres of land.  The rounder shaped peaberry is formed from the maturation of one seed per cherry rather than the typical two seeds.  The peaberry is sorted during the milling process and is considered distinct in its flavor profiles.
