As if on cue

This is a coffee made at the special request of our head roaster. When Rafał joined the team and sat down with us for his first cupping, he blurted out right away: "Hey, I think you've never had a coffee from Burundi, and I like them so much!" We had, but a long time ago! So we decided to make Rafał's life a little nicer, ordered samples, and chose this (and one more!) great lot.

Located in Ngozi Province, the Mubuga processing station collaborates with over 1,900 local farmers who deliver their carefully selected harvests here every year. This place stands out for its impressive technical infrastructure created for the precise processing of only the finest, fully ripe cherries. The station's facilities include as many as 12 fermentation tanks, 3 soaking tanks, over 300 drying beds, and 4 specialized tables for quality sorting.

Harvesting in this region usually lasts from April to June, but this coffee's journey to your cup only begins then. Burundi is a completely landlocked country – before these exceptional beans head out into the world and reach our roastery, they must travel an extremely long, demanding, and complex route.

Store in a cool and dry place.
