African Kahawa Blend

The Norse were traders as much as raiders, and they knew that the best cargo is a word for something wonderful. Kahawa is Swahili for coffee, and this medium-dark blend of African-grown lots is the treasure the name promises: toffee, caramel, chocolate, raisins, green apples, red fruits, cherry and black currant, closing on a soft floral finish.

The cherries are hand picked and often processed at the farmers' own homes. They are washed, sun dried, and hand sorted to exacting standards before they ever board the ship.
