Our Story
Edelweiss Coffee Farm is located in Oldeani, Karatu, on the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater. Since 1969, three generations of the Vohora family have carefully nurtured and expanded the farm, developing coffees of remarkable quality and character.
The farms sit high on the edge of the world-renowned Ngorongoro Conservation Area, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Bordering an indigenous forest, the land is shared with elephants, buffalo, lions, and smaller antelope. To protect this extraordinary ecosystem, large areas of bushland are preserved, and tree cover is maintained throughout the farms. The Vohora family is deeply committed to farming practices that minimize environmental impact while coexisting with the surrounding wildlife.
All coffees are grown at altitudes between 1,600 and 1,850 metres, placing these farms among the highest in Tanzania. The coffee is entirely rain-fed, due to limited water availability. Combined with dramatic topography, multiple coffee varieties, and a rich diversity of microclimates, these conditions produce a cup profile that is distinctive, complex, and expressive.
