more about this coffee
While we wait for the fresh crop from Ethiopia to arrive (yes, Tarekech will be back!), we're happy to offer this beautiful fruity Espresso. We're returning to an old favourite: Burundi Kibingo natural. We've sourced this coffee several times over the past years and it has just gotten better and also more meaningful (read on below for more on that).
In the cup, expect sweet strawberry and vanilla custard with a full body.

Sourced through Sucafina Specialty Coffee
Not only is the cup profile of full-on mouthwatering and popping more than ever, this coffee also supports a great cause: The livestock project, an initiative by our green coffee partners at Sucafina Specialty.
With each bag of coffee, a donation is made toward the project by which livestock - in this case goats - are distributed amongst the members of the coffee producing community. The goats are a way of diversifying income while offering sustenance and improving the coffee crop: They are easy to care for and reproduce quickly enabling families to sell the milk and meat for additional income or sustenance and the manure can be used as fertilizer for coffee trees and other crops.
