Migoti, Burundi

Product Description:

Overjoyed to present this incredible Anaerobic processed coffee sourced by our friends at Omwani! Carefully cultivated and harvested at the Bujumbura region in Burundi, offers us delicate notes of prunes, raspberries and blood orange. These notes remain long in the aftertaste, brightening up anyone's day. 

The Story:

The name "Migoti" comes from a local indigenous tree, which is also the name of the mountain where Migoti built their first coffee station, partnering with industry experts who provided technical expertise. Coffee trees are owned by the community, and Migoti purchases the coffee cherries directly from the farmers. Over 300 tons of green coffee was produced and exported from Migoti Mountain in the the 2020, 2021 and 2022 coffee seasons. These harvests have received excellent cupping scores, placing it as some of the best specialty coffee coming from Burundi. The majority of the temporary staff are women, who work mainly on the raised drying tables, regularly turning the coffee as it dries and removing defective beans that comprises the coffee quality. Migoti also assists farmers through ongoing education to prune and properly care for coffee trees. The expectation is that by following best farming practices the farmers can increase the yields from their coffee trees by five- to ten-fold.
