The Colorful Journey of Coffee Cherries

Coffee is more than just a beverage; it's a journey from plant to cup. And that journey begins with the coffee cherry. Coffee cherries are the fruit of the coffee plant, and inside each cherry are the coffee beans. Tanzanian coffee cherries are particularly vibrant, their colors a reflection of the rich, volcanic soils in which they are grown. But it's not just the cherries that are colorful. The leaves of the coffee plant also carry subtle, abstract shades of orange, adding another layer of beauty to the coffee-growing process. In this post, we explore the life of a coffee cherry on a Tanzanian plantation, from the moment it blooms, to when it is picked and processed. Each step in this process contributes to the flavor of your coffee, making each cup a testament to the journey of the coffee cherry.
