ILIFA African elephant fruit coffee beans (medium roast 250g)

South Africans integrate coffee into their lives, drinking a single coffee in multiple ways In South Africa, coffee is a staple in every household. For them, drinking coffee is a habit and an indispensable part of their diet. They change their drinking methods according to the rhythm of life: a cup of black coffee to refresh themselves in the morning, a light lunch with a cup of foam cappuccino, and afternoon tea time. Have a cup of white coffee (full white), and a low-strength latte if you can in the evening. With such diverse drinking methods, simple South Africans do not require championship coffee beans or multi-layered light roasted coffee, nor do they insist on black coffee. They believe a good cup of coffee can be simple and prefer a single, high-quality coffee that's smooth and thick, with nutty, chocolate and caramel characteristics, to suit everyone's daily needs. Africa's unique method of roasting "mellow" coffee ILIFA adheres to the spirit of South Africans drinking coffee and has developed a series of selected flavored coffees with South African roasting experts. Roasted using traditional African methods, each coffee bean exudes a unique aroma to complement the taste of the coffee. The ILIFA roasted coffee series currently covers coffee beans with four different aromas: vanilla, hazelnut, South African elephant fruit and African honey. The coffee brewed after grinding the beans has a smooth, pure and thick taste. It is neither sour nor bitter, and every sip is accompanied by a light aroma. It is suitable for those who want to enjoy a cup of simple, high-quality coffee at any time. African Elephant Fruit Mellow Coffee presents an exotic, fruity aroma, reminiscent of the African grasslands at sunset, with a strong milky aroma and a hint of floral sweetness, which perfectly blends with the rich coffee essence. For an introduction to African Elephant Fruit, please see: Coffee Demystification #4 | What is the "African Elephant Fruit" in ILIFA African Elephant Fruit Mellow Coffee? Made from 100% Arabica coffee beans ILIFA roasted coffee uses 100% high-quality Arabica single-origin coffee beans to ensure the highest quality and natural flavor. The green coffee beans we choose are produced in small coffee estates or farms in Ethiopia, Tanzania, Kenya and Rwanda. Each batch of coffee is carefully crafted by our South African roasting experts, who lovingly roast the green beans in small batches, handcrafted to order. During this process, traditional African techniques are used for medium roasting, resulting in unique coffee beans. Add milk and honey to taste Just like South Africans have diverse ways of drinking coffee, ILIFA roasted coffee is suitable for brewing black coffee, American coffee and various types of milk-containing coffee (latte, cappuccino, flat white, macchiato, etc.) , also suitable for various brewing methods: filter, hand brew, French press, espresso, stovetop moka pot, and cold brew. Drinking coffee does not have to be sugar-free or dairy-free. You should choose the concentration and sweetness ratio according to your personal preferences. ILIFA strongly recommends adding fresh milk directly to brewed black coffee (the proportion can be adjusted according to the coffee concentration) to reduce the bitterness and add rich coffee aroma. If you like your coffee to be sweet, it is recommended to use natural honey instead of sugar or syrup (ILIFA strongly recommends the use of South African precious flower honey or tree of life flower honey in the ILIFA honey series), so that the unique floral and fruity aroma of honey can be diffused in the coffee. The taste is addictive as soon as you drink it. Helping local small farmers and simplifying supply chains Our coffee beans serve a dual purpose: to avoid middlemen exploiting small African farmers and to streamline supply chains through fair trade.
