About this coffee

Country: Burundi Region: Kayanza Farm : Kibingo washing station Producer : 1 739 smallholders / Greenco Coffee Processing: Honey Altitude: 1 700–1 900 m a.s.l. Variety : Red Bourbon ABOUT THE COFFEE The Kibingo station in Kayanza, northern Burundi, serves 1,739 farmers from 18 hills at an altitude of 1,700–1,900 m a.s.l. Red Bourbon cherries are hand-picked by families, floated, and sorted before pulping. Honey process – part of the mucilage remains on the parchment, followed by drying on raised beds for 2–3 weeks. Each lot is evaluated by the Greenco cupping team, and every bean is sorted by hand at the Budeca mill. IMPACT certified – the purchase supports the Livestock for Living Income project. ROASTER'S OPINION Kibingo is a classic Burundian honey with a sweet, structured, and very approachable profile. Sweet citrus and caramel bring warmth and brightness, while black tea provides structure and a clean, long finish. The cup is smooth, balanced, and easy to read, with a natural sweetness tying it all together. Expressive yet calm and highly drinkable – a great everyday coffee. RECIPE It works best as filter coffee when you are looking for something sweet, balanced, and easy for daily brewing. Use a V60, Chemex, or batch brew, grind medium-coarse, and brew with water at 92–94°C to preserve the caramel sweetness and citrus brightness without losing the tea-like structure. In an AeroPress, the coffee becomes slightly fuller and rounder – the note of caramel steps into the foreground, and the body becomes a bit richer. Still clean, just more compact and warming. As it cools, the black tea character becomes more distinct and the citrus sweetness more noticeable – the cup gets smoother and more elegant. A great choice for daily brewing that remains consistent and satisfying.Store in a cool, dry place. Store in a cold and dry space.
