Burundi - Gitwe Hill

Natural Bourbon · Burundi

Red Berries · Florals · Tea

Produced by Long Miles Coffee at Heza Washing Station in Burundi, this lot comes from Gitwe Hill in Butanyerera Province.

Coffee from this region grows at elevations between 1,900 and 2,100 masl, surrounded by steep hillsides and small farming communities. The station processes cherries delivered by hundreds of local producers using careful hand-sorting and slow drying methods.

This natural Bourbon is expressive without becoming heavy. It carries bright berry character, delicate florals, and a tea-like finish that keeps the cup feeling elegant and clean.

It’s one of the more transparent naturals in the release.
