Context
Zambia is an emerging origin in the specialty coffee landscape, offering a distinct profile that often bridges the gap between the bright acidity of East Africa and the balanced body of Central American beans. This specific lot from Zambia Mount Sunzu, roasted by Glen Lyon Coffee, utilizes the washed processing method. In a washed process, the fruit flesh is removed from the seed before drying, a technique typically employed to highlight the inherent clarity and acidity of the coffee cherry. To better understand how this method influences the final cup, you can explore our processing methods explainer. As you evaluate the nuances of this Zambian selection, we encourage you to reference the flavor wheel to help identify and articulate the specific characteristics present in your brew. This coffee serves as a compelling example of the quality currently being produced in the region, showcasing the clean, refined results that careful washing can achieve.
