THE POWERHOUSE
It seems like you are searching for high intensity, full body and bitter aftertaste. The Dark is here. This coffee is a blend of beans from Uganda, Rwanda and Congo. It is roasted to a dark degree in Kenya and is known for its high intensity in combination with a medium but bitter aftertaste.

MEET THE FARMERS
The current batch of our Dark blend consists of three different beans from Uganda. The Dark is the result of the hardworking of the three cooperatives. 65% is from Mt. Elgon AB, 15% from Mt. Elgon AA and 10% from Mt. Elgon CPB. The farmers of these three coops do an amazing job in providing us with fully organic coffee with a green-coffee cupping score of 82 to 84.
The combination of the beans in Triple and Dark is similar, however, the different roasting process makes the final blends unique.


MEET THE PROCESSING TEAM
When the farmers deliver the ripe red berries to the washing station, the processing team washes them and puts them on the drying beds.
MEET THE COFFEE ROASTERS
Moyee has started its own roastery in Kenya. Some batches of Dark is roasted and packaged at Moyee’s roastery and some batches are roasted at Moyee’s FairChain Partner African Coffee Roasters in Athi River, Kenya. It employs 41 people. In this way, at least 50% of the value remains in this coffee region.


MEET THE PACKAGER
Immediately after the beans have been roasted, they are packed. Our team packs the coffee with nitroflush, so that all the oxygen goes out of the packaging so that the beans arrive fresh in the Netherlands. On each pack there is a PRD date, which is the production date. This way you know exactly when your coffee is roasted!
