ABOUT THE FARM

Sambewe AMCOS was established in 2018, when several groups of smallholder farmers—including Lungwa, Nansama, Sambewe, and Mandelewo—joined forces to create a single organisation.

Farmers deliver freshly harvested, red coffee cherries between 11:00 and 18:00. The pulping machine is only started once a large enough batch has been collected to allow for at least 2 hours of continuous operation. In the meantime, further deliveries arrive to maintain the workflow until approximately 19:00. After the pulp is removed, the beans are sorted by density in water channels into different grades: P1, P2, P3, lighter fractions, and so-called "pods" (the lowest grade).

The coffee then ferments for 12–24 hours, after which it is thoroughly washed and soaked for another 8–12 hours. Finally, it is moved to drying tables, where it rests for 7 to 14 days until it reaches the appropriate moisture level.

Store in a cold and dry space.
