Our Story
Utengule Coffee Lodge
Utengule Coffee Farm was started 101 years ago and continues to flourish. The lodge was built 30 years ago and has become a well-known respite for travelers and business people alike. Overlooking the Rift Valley the views have to be seen to be believed. We recently started tours to enhance our guests' enjoyment. Our guide will take you in comfort to explore some of the untouched landmarks in the South of Tanzania. On the edge of the East African Rift Valley, at the foot of the Mbeya range in Southern Tanzania, lies a region renowned for growing coffee. Warm summers and fresh winters combined with seasonal rains create the perfect conditions for coffee cultivation. And it is here that the famous Rift Valley Coffee has its origins, grown on the Utengule Coffee Estate 1,400 metres above sea level. The Bourbon varieties, grown under the shade on Utengule Estate are renowned for their smooth flavour, full body and excellent acidity. The soil is very organic and rich in minerals which originate from volcanic eruptions millions of years ago. The estate is crossed by clear mountain streams which are used to irrigate the coffee fields after the long dry seasons and to wash coffee during harvest.
