Village Life Tanzanian Peaberry is a wonderful blend of organic coffee, shade-grown on the slopes of Mt. Kilimanjaro and sourced from small farmers in Tanzania, East Africa who are paid three times fair-trade value.

The peaberry bean is carefully selected for it\’s rich, distinguished flavor, giving this coffee optimal flavor and aroma.
