Nsunzu Estate - wholesale 5lb

The youngest of the NCCL coffee estates, Nsunzu is located at the foot of picturesque Mount Nsunzu which is one of the biggest landmarks in Northern Zambia. Stunning rock formations make this one of the most beautiful coffee estates in the world.

In addition to the breathtaking environment, this region boasts various ancient civilizations who - independently from the European Iron Age - developed an Iron Age of their own that made use of the colorful ferrous soils. The first full crop from Nsunzu was harvested in 2020 and there is still plenty of scope for further expansion. Even though Nsunzu and the other estates have the potential for mechanical coffee harvesting, they deliberately decided to harvest by hand. This labor-intensive process allows for a more careful selection of only the reddest cherries which maximizes the rich flavor profiles. In addition, NCCL is the largest employer in the country and remains committed to providing employment in a region where sources of paid labor are extremely scarce.
