Zambia Natural Isanya Estate

Zambia coffee is almost never found in the United States. They only produce 2000 bags a year, making them barely a speck on the production map (Malawi produces 20,000 bags, Nicacragua 2 milliion, Ethiopia 6 million, etc) Anyway, whoever grew this one really knew what they were doing.

This one is from the Isanya Estate in the Mafinga Hills Region in the northern part of the country up by Tanzania. Zambia does not have a department of agriculture that certifies organic products, but Isanya does use organic farming methods and is UTZ and Rain Forest Alliance certified. These are the largest beans from their harvest, and sundried to make them fruity.
