Pear and jasmine help distinguish SanTee Tanzania from the roaster’s darker African Espresso blend. This coffee is sourced from cooperative farmers around Mbeya and roasted medium-light. The supplier also mentions strawberry and a broader floral character, with fully washed processing and raised-bed drying documenting how the coffee is prepared before roasting.

Give the floral aroma a steady brewing reference
Try 16 g coffee with 270 g water through a small paper filter. Smell the brew before sipping, then compare the pear-like impression at two comfortable drinking temperatures. Keep the pouring pattern consistent so a second trial tests your grind adjustment rather than several changes at once.
If the cup seems thin and sharply acidic, examine extraction before adding a large dose of sugar. A slightly finer grind may suit your brewer better. With pre-ground coffee, work with measured dose and water changes instead of assuming the flavor description guarantees one result.
Does jasmine mean this is blended with tea?
Jasmine is a sensory reference in the coffee profile. No jasmine tea or floral flavor addition is identified by the supplier. The product remains a Tanzanian coffee with named varieties and processing, rather than a coffee-and-tea blend.
