What You’ll Experience

This bean-to-cup interactive experience introduces travellers to the age-old process of roasting and brewing coffee. It begins with a short guided tour of a smallholder coffee farm where you learn about the cultivation of arabica coffee, one of Tanzania’s major export commodities. You will then proceed to our private garden for step-by-step instruction on how to husk, roast, grind and brew your own coffee using traditional handmade utensils. The process is entirely manual and will be accompanied by traditional songs. You begin by pounding the dried beans in a large wooden mortar and pestle to remove the outer husk. The beans are then roasted in a clay pot over a charcoal fire which endows them with a more rustic flavor. Once roasted, the beans are pounded into a coarse powder. You then brew your coffee in a clay kettle using fresh spring water. When ready, you will enjoy a cup of your organic single-origin coffee along with homemade sweets all prepared with local organic ingredients. Karibuni kahawa!
