Grown near the boundaries of Tanzania’s Gombe National Park, one sip and you’ll be transported to where the wild things are. Gombe is a dynamic cup, with violet-hued, jungle-bloom aromas and bold, tropical fruit flavors – mango, banana and pineapple – and a finish that rivals the spirit and intensity of a young wine.

A versatile coffee that performs well in auto-drip brewers, or manual-drip (pour-over filter cone or Chemex). Exceptional in a coffee press and vacuum pot. Much too bright for espresso!

The spring-like temperatures and predictable rainfall of Tanzania's greater Gombe region provide ideal habitat for both chimpanzees and world-class coffee. Its lush mix of grassland, open woodland, and deep green forests is one of the few places on earth where coffee farmers and chimpanzees live side-by-side.

Because it thrives under the shade of a forest canopy, this extraordinary coffee grows in harmony with chimps in one of their last, remaining habitats. It provides farmers an incentive to preserve the forest, a chance at economic stability, and a uniquely memorable taste profile.

“Our effort to involve local citizens in restoring the forests and practicing sustainable agriculture is the most important work we can do to ensure a future for the Gombe chimpanzees and the people of Africa.”
— Dr. Jane Goodall

Our Tanzanian Gombe Reserve coffee is the first to receive Jane Goodall's "Good for All" seal, signifying that it promotes better pay for farmers as well as a commitment to protect the environment and the planet's wildlife.
