New to BeanGreen this week - limited amounts available : Kenyan Gethumbwini Estate Peaberry Located in the foothills of the Aberdare Ranges, just north of Nairobi, Gethumbwini Estate covers 1000 hectares - coffee is grown on 360 hectares. Abundant wildlife is found on the estate and the farm members are educated about the importance of preserving these species, which include snakes, hares, owls, weaverbirds, hawks and, the main attraction, hippos. A combination of high altitudes (1800 metres above sea level) and rich, red volcanic soil makes Gethumbwini an ideal place to grow fine quality coffee. Tanzania Ngorongoro Blue Ngorongoro Blue is produced by smallholder farmers in Tanzania's northern highlands, close to the Ngorongoro crater and conservation area (a UNESCO world heritage site). These farmers produce no more than 50 bags of coffee a year - and many much less - with farms ranging from 1 to 20 acres in size. The farms lie at an average altitude of 1,500 metres above sea level. The coffee cherries develop slowly under mixed shade

Hi all, It's been a while since i've had the time to log on. We need to clear a bit of space this week and have reduced the price on some great Cup of Excellence and Mercanta sourced beans. They shouldn't last too long at these prices so get in quick. We need the space for some fantastic new Kenyans and Centrals  that we have sourced. We will run a cupping session in Brisbane for anyone who is interested in trying these beans. This will happen in the next couple of weeks. Keep an eye out i will post the details soon. Cheers Brendan.
