    This washed Starmaya comes from Mount Sunzu Coffee, a forward-thinking farm in northern Zambia at the base of the country’s highest mountain. Founded by a team of Swiss agronomists and entrepreneurs, Mount Sunzu is redefining what coffee farming can look like — combining quality production with climate-smart practices and long-term community investment. 115 hectares are under coffee, with 600 hectares of Miombo forest actively reforested as part of the farm’s commitment to environmental restoration.

    This lot was processed entirely on-site at Mount Sunzu’s wet and dry mill. After careful picking, the ripe cherries were floated and pulped, then fermented for 24 hours in 1000ml tanks without water. Fermentation relied on naturally occurring yeast and bacteria to develop complexity and structure. The coffee was then dried over ten days on raised beds, which were covered at night to maintain consistency, before being hulled, graded and hand-sorted.

    Mount Sunzu Coffee is a modern farm in northern Zambia, near the country’s highest mountain. Founded by Luca Costa, Fridolin Stocker, and Yanik Costa, it combines high-quality coffee production with a strong environmental and social mission. The team secured a 780-hectare site in Mbala in 2018 and have since transformed it into a forward-thinking agricultural model.

    115 hectares are planted with coffee, with more under development, while 600 hectares of Miombo forest are protected and being actively reforested. The farm uses solar-powered irrigation, processes coffee on-site using washed, honey and natural methods, and supports biodiversity through beekeeping.

    Alongside its environmental goals, Mount Sunzu provides fair, year-round employment to over 120 local staff, plus seasonal work. Wages include pension, health insurance and accident cover. The farm also invests in infrastructure, including an 8km road network, with future plans for clean water and solar access in the surrounding community.

    Mount Sunzu’s goal is simple but ambitious: to prove that climate-smart, socially responsible coffee farming can deliver exceptional quality — and lasting impact.
