VEE - Tansania Kilimandjaro, 1.10lb whole beans |
|
|
 |
The coffee for VEE Tanzania Kilimanjaro grows at an altitude of between 1300 and 1800m on the southern foothills of the Kilimanjaro (5895m), the highest mountain in Southern Africa.
I only know a few people who know their way around with coffee and its optimal roasting as Mr Scharaffia, Mr Tismer and his wife Kusaya, called VEE. One could think they have only put it into their heads to roast grade 1 coffee for life. A Mercedes would not be enough for them; their requirements to raw coffee at least have to be Maybach standard. It sounds quite ambitious, nevertheless VEE Caffè does put these maxims into practice, and very consistently so. They still roast hand-selected high-grown gourmet Arabica coffees from about 2000m, what are called Grand Cru coffees from Indonesia, East Africa and Latin America. Only the Grand Cru coffees, growing in high mountain regions under excellent climatic conditions to ripeness more slowly, which makes them much harder, are suited for careful, intense and substantially more aromatic roasts. That is why all VEE coffees develop their characteristic fragrance, an intense aroma and all nuances typical of coffee flavour to the full, something of which supermarket coffees do not have the slightest hint. Besides, VEE coffees have much lower acidity, are richer and possess long lasting aromas. The freshly roasted beans release such intense fragrance. May be VEE Caffè is not among the cheaper coffees. Yet on closer inspection, this coffee is still inexpensive.
As the name tells this Tanzania Kilimanjaro grows on the southern foothills of the highest mountain in southern Africa. Similar to Kenya Top Maasai this coffee grows at an ideal altitude and under the best climatic conditions between 1300 and 1800m. Its flavour has smooth aromas, excellent aromatic richness and a balanced, harmonious and a fruity presence.
The price becomes relative very quickly when you think that you only need 7g of this first-class coffee, i.e. 500g make more than 70 cups at a price of 18 Cents each. |
