Description

This wonderful coffee comes from the red clay hills of Ngozi, Burundi. Bavyeyi - which means "parents" in Kirundi - represents around 600 total producers, led by and largely comprised of women.

Natural processing brings delicious fruit notes that invoke plump berries and decadent vanilla cream. We're tasting tropical Starburst candies along with strawberry, blackberry, yellow peach, blood orange, and vanilla in a full-bodied cup - an excellent profile either hot or iced.

I'm a huge fan of JNP Coffees for their emphasis on farmers' and especially women's empowerment. This year's Bavyeyi harvest is outstanding, reminding us of strawberries and cream and tropical Starburst.
