Cameroon is an interesting origin in the Specialty Coffee terms. For starters, this is West African coffee, not East African like most other arabica offerings such as Kenya, Zimbabwe, Rwanda. Cameroon is one of the few African countries that produces both Arabica and Robusta coffee in significant quantities, with Robusta accounting for about 95% of total production. The western highlands of Cameroon, where much of the coffee is grown, averages about 5,000 feet above sea level and has two distinct seasons, the rainy season and dry season, which benefits quality arabica.

Grown in the lush highlands of the West and Northwest regions, these beans benefit from the area's volcanic soils and ideal climate.

Overall, this Cameroon lot is a very balanced drinking coffee, with notable, weighty body, and well-integrated acidity. Filbert nut, toasted coconut, zested citrus peel, herbal tones can be tasted in the finish.
