This coffee is sourced from the Gahahe Washing Station in the Kayanza province of Burundi, established in 1989. It is a Bourbon variety coffee grown at an altitude of 1650–1950 meters. Processed using the natural method, this light roast offers a vibrant flavor profile with notes of red dots candy, tangerine zest, and peanut butter cookie. The cup is characterized by heavy fruity and figgy qualities, balanced by a firm acidity reminiscent of a Malbec wine.

Wasatch Roasting Company was founded in 2016 by Darren and Tonya Blackford after a trip to Costa Rica sparked their fascination with small scale coffee roasting. What started with a tabletop roaster has grown into an in house roasting operation in downtown Ogden, Utah, where the Blackfords roast specialty grade beans in small batches. The company sources from producers and importers who prioritize sustainable practices and fair compensation. Wasatch also doubles as a community gathering space, featuring rotating gallery exhibitions and work by local artists and artisans throughout the shop.
