Origin : Kayanza, Burundi Roast: Espresso Producer : Long Miles Project Altitude : 1700 Meters Varietal : BourbonBourbonOne of the two foundational arabica varieties (with Typica), named after Île Bourbon (Réunion). Sweet, balanced, caramel-leaning; parent of countless modern cultivars. Process : WashedWashed processThe fruit is removed from the seed before drying, usually with fermentation and a water rinse. Tends to give clean, transparent cups where origin character shows clearly. This season, we are featuring a selection of superb lots from Bumba Hill. Despite ongoing deforestation in many areas of Burundi, Kayanza remains well-suited for coffee, with altitudes that climb to 2000 meters, volcanic soils, and rainfall of 1300 mm per year. The Long Miles Project helps farmers around Bumba Hill receive the recognition they deserve for their coffee. Lot 1 is a vibrant espresso, with bright notes of tangerine and a smooth, creamy texture.
