More Information:
The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) has a long history of wild growth of Robusta. So much so that 100 years ago Robusta was often referred to as “Congo coffee”, regardless of where it was grown. In 1895 a well known botanist named Professor Lament deemed the land so suitable for coffee growth that it could become a “second Brazil”. This kickstarted the farming of Arabica, and only ten years later half a million coffee plants were under cultivation for export.
The highland area of DRC has gained attention from specialty coffee roasters in recent years. With development commitments from specialty roasters and coffee traders, DRC is now on the specialty coffee map. In the last five years washing stations have been built in every growing region.
Additional Information
1 lb coffee - tasting notes are natural flavors that exist in the coffee
Coffee comes in a standard 16oz size fresh roasted in Alaska. All coffee is roasted tasting notes are subjective; the notes come from our coffee gurus and reflect the naturally occurring flavors that show up in coffee from around the world.
Our Philosophy on Grinding Coffee
The presence of quality is important to us from purchase through final sale. Once coffee is ground, oxygen is exposed to the beans and pushes out the gases and aromatics, causing staling to occur much more quickly than in whole bean form. This is because ground coffee exposes a much larger surface area for the oxygen to get in and aromatics to escape. The finer the grind, the quicker this process takes place, thus compromising quality.
Several factors that could affect this time period is the storage container the coffee is kept in, ambient temperatures, moisture levels, roast levels, and roasting processes.
Freezing coffee in an airtight container is a proven method for extending the life of roasted coffee beyond a few days.
