Migoti - Burundi

$17.00

This beautifully processed Honey, Burundi was produced by Migoti Coffee Company. This coffee is a result of highly skilled farmers in Burundi, despite facing challenging obstacles, like fuel shortages, landslides and heavy rain, we were so impressed with the sweetness and syrupy body on the cupping table.

You can expect high sweetness with nuts and dry fruit notes supported by a bit of spice, and a caramel aftertaste.

Migoti Coffee Company

This coffee was produced by Migoti Coffee Company. The name “Migoti” comes from a local indigenous tree, which is also the name of the mountain where Migoti built their first coffee washing station.

Migoti Coffee is a Burundian coffee producer based in the Mutambu Commune of Bujumbura Province, Burundi. Founded in 2015 by engineers Pontien Ntunzwenimana and Dan Brose, Migoti Coffee aims to improve the livelihoods of local coffee farmers by connecting them with international buyers and roasters through quality processing and transparent supply chains. The company operates two coffee washing stations nestled in the mountains of the Bujumbura Rural Province and works with a growing number of smallholder farmers to produce high-quality coffee.

Bujumbura, Burundi

This washing station operates in a region referred to as Migoti Mountain, in Mutambu Commune of Bujumbura Province, 30 km from the centre of Bujumbura. Coffee farming and production began in Burundi in the early 1900s under Belgian colonial rule, where farmers were forced to grow coffee, the produce was bought and processed by the state and coffee was exported primarily to Europe. The sector was privatized in the 1960s, followed by state control from 1976 to 1991, and then a new wave of privatization began in 1991.

Honey

This coffee was harvested between July and August, 2024. Coffee cherries were sorted by hand and processed using Ngila’s on-site production facilities.

Processing involved pulping and washing the coffee, before fermenting it in tanks for 15 hours. The beans were then transferred to raised drying beds for 14 days, at which point the moisture level was low enough to send the coffee to Rafiki Coffee mill, which is located in Moshi.

Rafiki mill saw the lot hulled of its parchment and packed up for export.
