Akeza is a washed Bourbon Arabica coffee from the Butanyerera region in Kayanza Province, Burundi, grown at 1680 meters elevation in volcanic soil. It offers a dark roast profile with bright and complex flavors featuring dark stonefruit, cherry, vanilla, and nougat with a dark chocolate finish. Suitable for filter and espresso brewing.
Boon Boona is the real deal if you want to connect with where coffee actually comes. Founded by Efrem Fesaha after a trip to Eritrea, the roastery bridges Seattle’s coffee scene with the East African community rituals he grew up around. They source exclusively from African producers, often prioritizing women-owned farms, so you know your money is going to the right place. It’s a way to drink amazing coffee while supporting a business that treats the bean (and the people who grow it) with total respect.
