Specialty coffee from Burundi. This special edition filter coffee offers a vibrant and sweet cup, with a citric acidity that stands out from the first sip. Notes of lemon, green apple and caramel are integrated into a clean and refreshing profile, with medium body and a long finish. Ideal for those who enjoy complex and nuanced filters.
The Washed Nemba station, located in the northern province of Kayanza, Burundi, is a key center for the production of high quality coffees. It receives cherries from 1,074 smallholder farmers, each with an average of 150 coffee trees, grown at altitudes above 1,700 meters above sea level near the Kibila forest.
Under the supervision of a senior agronomist, Nemba implements Good Agricultural Practices (GAPs) and farmer education programs, ensuring that farmers have access to the tools and knowledge necessary to optimize their crops. The station has more than 200 drying tables and has the capacity to process up to 750 metric tons of cherries per year.
In addition, Nemba is involved in various community support projects, including livestock breeding initiatives and programs focused on strengthening cooperatives and improving agricultural yields. These actions not only improve coffee quality, but also contribute to the sustainable development of the local community.
Process
The ripe cherries are harvested and undergo a complete Washed process. After pulping, the beans are fermented to remove any remaining mucilage and then washed with clean water. They are then dried on raised beds under the sun, allowing optimal air circulation to ensure uniform drying and the preservation of the coffee's sensory attributes.
