The exact date of coffee’s arrival in DRC is unknown, but it undoubtably came with early European settlers to the region. At a time when Europe’s main coffee producer, Indonesia, was embroiled in a battle with the then-new Coffee Leaf Rust (CLR), the DRC, like many colonized nations, was geared to fill the European taste for coffee.

Guji is a region in Southern Ethiopia – the beans are grown in a forest jungle environment at an altitude of 1,500-2,350 meters above sea level, giving the beans plenty of time to mature slowly and develop plenty of taste. The region of Guji is named after a tribe of the Oromo people who have roamed the mountains for thousands of years.
