Burundi Gitega

About This Coffee

Gitega, nestled at the core of Burundi’s highlands, is more than a place—it’s a symbol of a nation’s coffee renaissance. Despite a turbulent past, Burundi’s coffee producers have reclaimed their place on the specialty map through community-driven efforts and a return to quality-focused farming. Gitega coffees stand out for their elegant clarity and complexity, showcasing the benefits of careful washing and patient drying on raised beds. Each cup seems to carry echoes of hibiscus and ripe berries, tied together by a tea-like grace that makes it feel both luxurious and humble. It’s a coffee that doesn’t shout but certainly lingers in memory.
