About Burundi

Burundi is located in the eastern part of Central Africa, south of the equator. It borders Rwanda to the north, Tanzania to the east and south, and the Democratic Republic of Congo to the west, with Lake Tanganyika forming its southwestern border. The country is characterized by high plateaus and mountains, mostly consisting of the eastern plateau of the East African Rift Valley. With an average elevation of 1,600 meters nationwide, it is known as the "Mountain Country." More than half of its territory lies on the famous Lake Tanganyika. The capital is Bujumbura. The western lakeside and valley regions, as well as the eastern part, have a tropical savanna climate, while the central-western region has a tropical mountain climate. The average annual temperature ranges from 20-24°C, reaching highs of up to 33°C. March to May is the heavy rainy season, October to December is the light rainy season, and other months constitute the dry season.

Burundi Coffee Industry

Burundi has one of the world's most diverse and successful coffee industries, with its own unique characteristics. Coffee was introduced to the country in 1930 by Belgian colonists and is now cultivated on small farms. Unfortunately, many of these farms are located in areas bordering war-torn Rwanda, which puts pressure on coffee production. Almost all coffee produced in Burundi consists of Arabica beans, with coffee trees in the Ngozi region growing at altitudes above 1,200 meters. Burundi's coffee is known for its rich, aromatic flavor and excellent acidity, with most exports going to the United States, Germany, Finland, and Japan.

Coffee Characteristics

Burundi coffee bears striking similarities to that of its neighbor Rwanda, and the coffees from these two countries are often confused. Burundi's coffee cultivation is predominantly Bourbon, using traditional washed processing methods for coffee cherries. The main characteristics of its specialty coffee are elegant sweetness and bright citrus aromatics. This particular batch belongs to the Bourbon variety micro-lot.
