About product
The freshest edition of Fucking Strong Coffee from the Congolese island of Idjwi, in the heart of Lake Kivu. Floral, fruity and fun.
Stunted by their remote location and lack of infrastructure, the coffee farmers of Idjwi had been resorting to smuggling their crops into the neighbouring Rwanda for decades — a dangerous ordeal with little payoff. In 2013, local coffee growers formed the island’s first cooperative — CPNCK — and finally began selling their coffee independently. Driven by their mission of securing a more peaceful, independent future for the island’s youth, the cooperative has made a serious name for itself amongst specialty coffee buyers over the last several harvests. In the process, they’ve basically eliminated the island’s illicit coffee trade and improved the livelihoods of thousands of farmers and their families.
These beans originate from CPNCK’s Ngula micro-mill, and, damn, are they sweet! They make downright delicious filter coffee and cold brew while also holding up nicely as a light, fruity espresso.
