Limu

Originating from the western highlands of Ethiopia - the area around the town of Limu and Kaffa (the name possibly drawn from "coffee"). The coffee tree is indigenous to this land. It is the home of the original wild "Arabica typica" species - the ultimate coffee. Many coffee trees still grow in the wild in these highlands; and the Limu coffee contains fruit taken from these wild trees. This area represents the perfect habitat to grow truly superior coffee.
Good balanced cup and “Winey” flavours, The Limu consistently scores high in blind taste tests with our customers. The Limu crop is handpicked from high altitude trees and wet processed. Several stages of sorting are employed. The beans have a distinctive rounded shape and bright greenish colour.

Mandheling

the war he contacted the Sumatran Pwani brokers and ordered "Mandheling" coffee (misspelling). They shipped 15 tons, using his naming - which has stuck ever since. A classic “Grade One” Mandheling coffee from near Lake Toba on the island of Sumatra in Indonesia.
Full-bodied and mild. The coffee is grown in the central highlands of Sumatra, in the Batak region. The name is derived from the name of the indigenous people of the region, the Mandailing. The unique naming of this coffee is believed to derive from a Japanese coffee roaster who was posted there in the second world war.
When discovering this wonderful coffee, he asked the locals what it was called; to which they answered "Mandailing", thinking he was asking who they were. After the war he contacted the Sumatran Pwani brokers and ordered "Mandheling" coffee (misspelling). They shipped 15 tons, using his naming - which has stuck ever since.

Nose: Nutty, tobacco, honey, peach pip, roasted tomatoes, dark chocolate
Pallet: Bitterness, dark chocolate, lower acidity and fruit than the Asorganila.
A full coffee with lower acidity and high level of bitterness that can work well as an cappuccino coffee or a after dinner coffee with dark chocolate treats.
