Coffee/Origin: Burundi Kibingo Kayanza
Variety: Red Bourbon
Process: Natural
Notes: Fruit punch, grape, jasmine

“This coffee is dynamic and brilliant. It is everything we have ever wanted in a naturally processed coffee. Fruity, fun and enjoyable from start to finish. It’s worth it to grab both the natural and honey process of this coffee to compare how processing can affect the flavor of the coffee. Kayanza is one of the most reputable growing regions of Burundi. Soils are rich and volcanic, while the growing conditions are optimal year round. Burundi may not have the reputation of it’s more famous coffee-producing neighbors Ethiopia and Kenya, but it is producing equally as good coffee. If you are a fan of Ethiopian naturals, this coffee will satisfy.”
