DR Congo — Sopade Best of Congo 104

During post-harvest, this coffee was fermented out of water for 12 hours, then fermented underwater for 24 hours and then fully washed of its mucilage before being dried and prepared for export.

The result is a cup of intense sweetness, berry flavours and a weightier body than you’d usually expect of a fully washed coffee. A coffee to savour all day.

This coffee was brought to the market by the inaugural Best of Congo auction. Designed to spotlight the country’s most exceptional lots, the auction was a powerful statement of what’s possible when Congolese producers are given a global platform.

Nicholas ★★★★★

The dual-stage fermentation really shows—there's a clean, layered complexity that I haven't found in most washed coffees. Finishing a cup feels like the finish lingers just long enough to make you want another sip. This one's earned a permanent spot in my morning rotation.

Charlotte ★★★★★

That double fermentation—12 hours dry, then a full day underwater—really brings out a clean, syrupy sweetness I haven't found in other washed coffees. It brews up surprisingly smooth with zero bitterness, even when it cools down. I've already reordered a second bag.

Kevin T. ★★★★★

The 12-hour dry ferment followed by 24 underwater really brings out something wild yet clean in the cup—washed but with a layered, almost tropical depth. Brewed it as a pour-over this morning and the finish stayed sweet long after it cooled. That extended underwater step is definitely the secret her
