Background:

PB Top Kalonge Coffee Farm

The Kalonge Farm is located in the Mbozi subregion, in the Mbeya region of Tanzania. This farm is nearly 100 hectares large and planted in almost 100,000 trees with shade crops grown among the coffee, it produces fully washed coffees. Ripe cherries are harvested during the day and delivered to the mill in the afternoons and the cherries are processed that evening. After depulping, the coffee is graded using channels and then fermented for an average period of 8 hours before it is washed. After this, the coffee is soaked for an average of 8-12 hours and then placed on raised beds for an average of 8-14 days to complete the drying process, where it is moved consistently to ensure a uniform dryness throughout the lot.
