Celebrating African Uniqueness
African coffee stands out in the global coffee landscape for its unique characteristics, setting it apart from other varieties. At Simba Coffee Company, we cherish these differences, which are rooted in the diverse climates and soils of Africa. African beans typically have a brighter acidity, more complex flavor profiles, and a lighter body compared to their South American or Asian counterparts. These qualities reflect the varied microclimates across the African coffee belt, ranging from the floral, citrusy notes of Ethiopian beans to the bold, fruity flavors of Kenyan coffee. Our dedication to showcasing these distinctive attributes in our African coffee collection allows coffee aficionados to embark on a sensory journey, exploring the rich tapestry of flavors that only Africa can provide.
Echoes of Ancient Beans
The history of African coffee is as rich and varied as the continent itself, a story steeped in tradition and legend. At Simba Coffee Company, we honor the legacy of African coffee, which is believed to have its origins in Ethiopia, dating back to the 9th century. According to popular lore, coffee was discovered by a goat herder named Kaldi, who noticed his goats becoming energetic after eating certain berries. This discovery led to the cultivation of coffee in Ethiopia, and its popularity soon spread to neighboring countries like Kenya and Uganda. Over the centuries, African coffee played a significant role in the social, economic, and cultural development of these regions. It became a symbol of hospitality and community, with traditional coffee ceremonies still being a vital part of local customs. By delving into the history of African coffee, we connect with its profound roots and celebrate the journey of these ancient beans from wild forests to global recognition.
