This washed red bourbon has all the classic notes we love in Burundi coffees. Lots of darker sugars, tea like florals, , and a crisp malic acidity. Clean, sweet and moreish- this is definitely your go-to, everyday drinker.
173 smallholders contribute to the lot, including lead farmer Thomas Kurubone. After harvest, cherries are sold to Migoti Coffee, who process it at their washing station in Migoti Hill. After sorting, cherries are left to ferment for one day, then pulped and washed. The coffee is pre-dried on tables in the shade for 5 days, before being moved into the sun for full drying on raised beds for 2-3 weeks.
