{"product_id":"zambia-ngoli","title":"Zambia Ngoli","description":"\u003cp\u003eZambia coffee is almost never found in the United States. It is prized for its juicy fruity notes, much like a Kenya, but is smoother and more full bodied than most Kenyan beans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis one is from the Ngoli Estate in the Munali Region (there are a chain of foothills known as the Munali Hills running through Zambia). Zambia does not have a department of agriculture that certifies organic products, but Ngoli does use organic farming methods, and they have UTZ certification and RainForestAlliance certification. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe farm is meticulous about only picking the ripe coffee, and then processing it on site. I have found that it needs slightly less heat than you would expect, and the roast tries to race through the middle if you don't pay attention.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy only recommendation for roasting is to give it a medium roast, just at the verge of the second cracks. You’ll have a mug of coffee that tastes clean, full bodied, chocolatey, smooth, and cherries. Hint of smoky citrus, slight tartness, a little bit savory, but mostly just chocolate and cherry. We fully experimented with a variety of roast profiles and kept coming back to this one because the darker roasts do begin to burn, and the lighter roasts are somewhat tart. It's not great espresso, but it's excellent as drip coffee.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUS Arrival: July 2022\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"happymugcoffee","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39729720033368,"sku":null,"price":5.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0045\/8548\/8472\/products\/PXL_20211119_181146806.jpg?v=1738611416","url":"https:\/\/happymugcoffee.mom\/products\/zambia-ngoli","provider":"Happy Mug","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
