This single-origin coffee is from the Vohora family's Finagro farm in Karatu, Tanzania, located at 1,750 meters altitude. The SL-28 variety undergoes a distinctive processing method that includes maceration of cherries on raised beds for 2-3 days, followed by a 2-3 week natural drying process with seeds still in the fruit. The coffee displays flavor notes of strawberry jam with subtle warmth of spiced pears cooked in sugar.
PERC Coffee was founded in 2010 by Philip Brown in Savannah, Georgia, beginning with a Diedrich IR 12 roaster sourced from eBay and initial deliveries made by bike and backpack. The roastery operates from a restored warehouse alongside an organic community garden, embedding sustainability into both coffee sourcing and physical space. Brown sources colorful coffees from various origins, prioritizing long term producer relationships that allow consistency and trust building. The roasting philosophy centers on small batch profiles crafted to maximize sweetness and varietal character, while monthly free public cupping sessions invite the community into the sensory experience of specialty coffee.
