A peaberry coffee bean is when one single round bean develops inside of the coffee cherry instead of the usual two beans. A natural mutation, it is estimated that 5-10% of coffee grown will produce peaberries.

Soochak Bush and Tropex are two companies that began collaborating in 1999 to improve coffee production in the Mbinga district of Tanzania. They have rehabilitated 8 existing wet mills, built 13 new centralized wet mills, and another 8 micro wet mills.

Cherries are hand sorted, soaked so floaters can be removed, depulped, fermented for 2 to 3 days, washed in channels, dried on raised beds, and then sorted again at the dry mill.

Farmers are paid for parchment during the harvest, and paid a share of profits after export.
