Reviving Origins Program
Reviving Origins is our long term program in which we partner with farmers to restore coffee regions. The rain-rich volcanic soils along the Kivu lakeshores of Eastern Congo are ideal Arabica terroir. Years of continued conflict and political instability left many plantations abandoned and smallholder farmers tapping only a fraction of Congo's potential for specialty coffee.WHY WE LOVE IT:
Reviving Origins Congo is a smooth organic coffee with nutty aromas, mild fruity and alluring sweet cereal notes. Try this coffee with milk and discover how it transforms those cereal aromas into a light, sweet and creamy cup full of biscuity notes, a hint of walnut, and a silky texture.

Origin
REVIVING ORIGINS is our long-term program through which we partner with farmers to bring back some of the great coffees we almost lost. The rain-rich volcanic soils along the Kivu lakeshores of Eastern Congo are ideal Arabica terroir. Years of continued conflict and political instability leave many plantations abandoned and smallholder farmers tapping only a small fraction of the Congo’s potential for speciality coffee. Nespresso’s REVIVING ORIGINS program joins together with the South Kivu farmers and partners to support coffee communities in raising Congo coffee to its full stature. REVIVING ORIGINS Congo is still a scarce treasure to behold. But each year, we’ll bring you more of this smooth coffee with its mild fruity note and alluring sweet cereal and nutty aromas.
Roasting
We roast this coffee in 2 batches. Although it is overall a medium roast profile, a small portion of these coffees get a darker roast to bring out the intensity and body.
Aromatic Profile
A smooth coffee, with mild fruity notes and sweet cereal and nutty aromas.

This is part of our continued journey towards circularity, going further to minimize waste and maximize the reuse of product materials.
Recycled aluminium requires less energy to produce and it provides the perfect barrier against oxygen, light, and humidity to protect the freshness and aromas of coffee over time.
