About the Lot

Like many of Burundi's finest coffees, this lot follows a traditional washed process designed to maximise clarity, sweetness and balance.

Freshly harvested cherries are depulped before undergoing 12-24 hours of fermentation. The parchment is then transferred to African raised beds, where it dries slowly over 2-3 weeks until reaching its ideal moisture content of 11-12%. Each day's production is carefully evaluated through cupping before being blended into export lots, ensuring exceptional consistency and quality.

The result is a beautifully balanced cup showcasing juicy Stonefruit sweetness, delicate Black Tea character and a clean Sugarcane finish. Elegant, refined and wonderfully approachable, it is everything we look for in a classic washed Burundi.

A timeless expression of Kayanza, showcasing the quality, collaboration and craftsmanship that continue to define Burundian coffee.
