{"product_id":"kateshi-estate-zambia-medium-roast","title":"Kateshi Estate, Zambia - Light Roast","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003eFrom the high red soils of Zambia's Northern Province, along the southern shore of Lake Tanganyika and beneath the Mafinga Hills, comes one of Africa's most quietly remarkable coffees. Established in 1972 as one of the very first coffee estates in Zambia, Kateshi has since claimed both 1st and 2nd place at Zambia's annual Taste of Harvest competition, and this natural lot shows exactly why. Cherries are double hand-picked to better than 98% ripeness, float-sorted, then dried slowly on raised beds for three to four weeks until their sweetness has fully settled into the bean. The cup pours bright with blueberry and maraschino cherry, deepens into warm notes of rum and butterscotch, and finishes with a crisp snap of green apple. Beyond what's in your mug, Kateshi provides safe drinking water to over 20,000 locals, supports three schools and the region's only health clinic, and stands as the first estate in Zambia to employ women in traditionally male-dominated roles. A coffee with terroir, craft, and conscience in every brew.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eORIGIN:\u003c\/strong\u003e Zambia\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eREGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Northern Province — Kateshi Estate, Mafinga Hills\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eROAST:\u003c\/strong\u003e Light (12% DTR)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTASTING NOTES:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blueberry • Green Apple • Maraschino Cherry\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePROCESS:\u003c\/strong\u003e Natural \/ Dry Processed\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eELEVATION:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1,300 MASL\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVARIETY:\u003c\/strong\u003e Castillo, Catimor 129, F6\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e***\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe typically roast all of our coffees to order on Thursdays and Fridays.
