Gitwe - Burundi, Friedhats | 250g

It’s an exciting day when we release a coffee from a new origin, and that makes today an exciting day. Our first ever Burundi is certainly a coffee delicious enough to put a new label on the board- Gitwe is syrupy sweet, citrusy, and full of stewed spices. Often spoken about (regarding coffee) in tandem with its neighbor to the north, Rwanda, it’s easy to understand the comparison when these coffees are at their best. They can both put on a dazzling display of bright and citrusy black tea and a jammy fig sweetness, and the Gitwe is a great introduction if this is your first foray into Burundi as a coffee origin. Tastes like Green tea, Red grape and Apricot.
