This roastery is named for the Clock Peaks of the Langeberg mountain range that overlooks the town of Swellendam.
Owned by Bert and Minnie Pienaar, Clock Peaks Coffee focuses on Arabica coffee bean varieties that have mostly been sourced from African countries such as Ethiopia, Uganda, Rwanda and Tanzania.
Bert and Minnie use fair and honest trade, organic and naturally-processed coffees that are roasted using the latest technological innovations in roasting – a Genio 6 Artisan Pro intelligent roaster, which is the latest generation state-of-the-art production shop roasters, combined with a Cropster Ready machine where profiles are tracked, logged and visualized.
They also ensure that the final product is packaged with eco-friendly materials.
Clock Peaks Coffee is roasted in small batches to ensure attention to detail with each batch scrutinized before and after roasting in their coffee lab.
At our recent cupping, we found the Clocks Peak Coffee House Blend to be a medium roast coffee that was very evenly roasted and that it exuded a natural sweetness. Most of us agreed that this was one of the most well-balanced coffees of the day, but best enjoyed as an espresso.
Despite the packaging being eco-friendly, it was well-ventilated with a superior one-way valve and thus one could expect a good shelf life.
Clock Peak Coffee’s may be purchased from their offices at JJ’s Business Park in Russel Street, Swellendam or may be ordered by telephone on 028 514 1453 or email info@clockpeaks.co.za.
