Description

This coffee is grown at elevations of 1,650–1,950 masl by smallholder producers in Kayanza province, where the majority of Burundi’s coffee is produced. Farmers typically cultivate less than half a hectare of land, growing coffee alongside crops such as bananas, beans, yams, taro, and cassava. Cherries are selectively handpicked and delivered to Gakenke Washing Station, established in 1991, where the coffee is centrally processed.
