Kivu coffee comes from the picturesque Kivu region in the heart of Congo, where the unique conditions of altitude, climate and volcanic soil provide exceptional terroir for growing coffee. This region is renowned for its high-quality Arabica coffees, grown with care and passion by local communities, including the Pygmies, respecting ancestral traditions.
Type of Coffee: Selected for its purity and intensity, Kivu coffee is a premium Arabica, reflecting the richness and diversity of Congolese flavors.
Product Features
