Tangwen Passionfruit Ferment – Tropical Martini from Mount Elgon
🥭 Passionfruit // Tangerine // Raspberry // Grape // Silky Mouthfeel 🍇
Think passion-fruit Martini. This is a sophisticated coffee with a fun side.
Fresh tangerines, a burst of raspberry and juicy grape, all wrapped in a satin-smooth body. It’s bright, playful and seriously moreish—Uganda like you’ve never tasted it.
Grown 1,900 m up the slopes of Mt Elgon, this lot comes from the tiny farming community of Tangwen and our friends at Zukuka Bora Coffee Co. The secret sauce? A seven-day sealed-drum passionfruit co-fermentation that supercharges the fruit notes without losing balance. Every bag sold pours money straight back into local clean-water schemes, schools and health projects run by NGO JENGA—so it’s flavour with impact.

Brewing Suggestions
Filter Vibrant, aromatic, and super fruity.
Espresso turns into a passionfruit-raspberry truffle, lengthen with hot water and get childhood j2o vibes. Add milk. It's a solero. Thank us later.
IMPORTANT: We strongly advise waiting 3 weeks from roast date before delving into this coffee. Resting it improves the flavour MASSIVELY! We will do our best to get it to you rested, however it's been selling out like hot coffee so this might not be possible all the time!
And finally, because hunting down coffees this vivid online should be like spotting bright fruit at a market stall, not decoding a cryptic crossword. These tags keep it simple: (do they? or is this hurting our SEO?)
