Longleng - Nagaland Organic Specialty Coffee

This Single Origin, Organic, Specialty Coffee has a gooseberry aroma; lemony, cranberry, liquorice flavours; and grapefruit aftertaste. It is roasted to a 'Full-City' Profile. 

Longleng, known as 'The Land of Handicrafts,' is a district in the Indian Northeast state of Nagaland. This is a serene district that is gaining recognition in India's specialty coffee landscape. It is situated at an elevation of 1,100 m, amidst lush hills and nourished by rivers such as Dikhu and Yongam.

These conditions are ideal for cultivating high-quality Arabica coffee. Farming is largely undertaken by smallholder farmers, many from the indigenous Phom Naga tribe. They do organic farming under forest canopies. This practice sustains the environment, as well as imparts rich and diverse flavours to the coffee beans.
