REVIVING ORIGINS Congo is a smooth coffee with a mild fruity note and alluring sweet cereal and nutty aromas.
REVIVING ORIGINS Congo is split roast. A small portion of these Arabica beans gets a darker roast to bring out the intensity and body of this coffee.
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 abandonded and smallholder farmers tapping only a small fraction of Congo's potential for specialty coffee.

Reviving origins
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.
Nespresso's REVIVING ORIGINS program joins together with over 2800 Kivu farmers and partners to support coffee communities in raising Congo coffee – delivering the first organic coffee in our Reviving Origins range. REVIVING ORIGINS Congo is still a scarce treasure to behold. But each year, we'll bring you more of this smooth organic coffee, alluring complex with its mild fruity note and toasted cereal and nutty aromas.
Coffee with purpose
Together with the NGO Technoserve, in charge of diagnosing how to revive crops in the affected area, improve crop yields and provide techniques to regenerate soil quality, we worked on the development of the Reviving Origins program.
