Tasting NotesTasting notesThe flavors a roaster perceives in the cup — 'jasmine, apricot, black tea'. Descriptive associations, not ingredients: nothing is added to the coffee.: Strawberry milk, rainier cherry, & cola Producer: Nyangwe Coop Province: Kayanza Varietal: Red BourbonBourbonOne of the two foundational arabica varieties (with Typica), named after Île Bourbon (Réunion). Sweet, balanced, caramel-leaning; parent of countless modern cultivars. Process: NaturalNatural processThe whole cherry is dried with the fruit still on the seed. Gives heavier body and big fruit flavors — think berries and wine — sometimes with a fermenty edge. Recipes: Espresso: 1:2.5 | Filter: 1:17 About: Nyangwe is a young cooperative, made up of just 355 members all located around Nyangwe Hill, in the Kayanza Province of Northern Burundi. The members formed their own coop because they believe the coffee from their little part of the province is special, and grew tired of including it in larger regional lots. Nyangwe only processes natural coffees, as they're in the planning stages of building their own wet millWashing stationA central mill where many smallholder farmers deliver cherry for processing. In Ethiopia, Kenya, and Rwanda the station name (e.g. Idido) often identifies the coffee.. Supporting them, through purchasing this coffee will get them closer to their goal. Roasting days: Proud Mary roast Monday-Friday during normal business hours. To ensure freshness of coffee, best to order early in the week as postal services and couriers do not operate on weekends. Orders: placed by 8.30am PST will be roasted and dispatched the same day. If you are ordering on a Friday, and order after 8.30am then your coffee will be roasted the following business day - Monday.
