Tanzania, Ngila Estate

£15.50
Ngila Estate is a coffee farm and producer that has been cultivating coffee since the 1920s, though it was not until 1992 that it was purchased by the Meyer family and established in its current name.  The farm covers approximately 100 hectares and borders a 50-hectare forest corridor that allows local fauna, such as elephants, to access traditional migration paths and mineral-rich caves.  Ngila Estate supports its workers and the local community through fair wages, medical assistance, education funding, and skills training. Many of the estate’s 100 employees have worked there for over 30 years.

Packaging

We have specifically sourced our packing so it can be recycled.

Our coffee bags are made from LDPE - 4, which can be taken anywhere that recycles plastic bags (supermarkets & council sites). Everything else we use can be put in domestic curbside recycling.

Delivery

We roast once a week in batches to reduce our carbon footprint. So your coffee might not arrive the next day.

Direct Trade

Whilst Fairtrade (TM) is a great, we believe directly buying from producers means all the money goes to straight to them.
