This coffee is sourced from smallholder producers in the Busambo community, located in the hills of Kayanza, Burundi. Grown at an altitude of 1,850–2,100 meters, this Red Bourbon variety is naturally processed and dried on raised beds for 20–25 days. The coffee thrives in rich red clay soils near the Kibira National Forest. It offers a balanced flavor profile featuring notes of warming spices, brown sugar, and bright tangerine, providing a combination of comforting sweetness and lively citrus acidity.
