This coffee originates from the Songwe region of Tanzania, produced by the Iyenga coffee farmer cooperative established in 2003 with 191 members. The varieties include Kent, Bourbon, and N39, grown at altitudes between 1600-1671 meters above sea level. The coffee is washed and sun-dried, processed using modern infrastructure including an eco depulper and wet mill through a partnership with Taylor Winch Tanzania. Farmers employ sustainable intercropping systems where coffee trees grow alongside food crops like bananas and beans. Flavor notes include rhubarb, red currant, and digestive biscuit.
Dark Arts Coffee is a London-based roastery known for its rebellious spirit, occult-inspired branding, and a serious passion for great coffee. They take a "no-nonsense" approach, sourcing high-quality beans and roasting them to perfection. Their philosophy is to make "hellishly good coffee" without the pretension, often collaborating with artists and musicians.
