Single Origins
Roasted in small batches, our Single Origin coffee is sourced from a farm or co-op from a region area.
This unique traceability is a distinguishing factor, by acknowledging this small batch coffee supports a unique farm and community. It’s flavour is a close depiction of it’s origin, possessing characteristics of that specific region and varietal of the plant where the particular coffee was grown.
It’s a deeper understanding of the coffee profile and it’s relationship to the region. It’s a seasonal selection representing the best incarnation of that region and is delicious as a black coffee or delicate when served with milk.

To produce this coffee, 441 farmers deliver their harvested cherries to the washing station on Yandaro hill. Yandaro washing station was constructed in 1986 and is currently managed by Celestin Ntahiraja. These farmers belong to the COCOCA Co-operative union. Formed in 2012, 'COCOCA' exists to further facilitate the promotion of the coffee of its many member Co-operatives, and to develop other complementary services. COCOCA has so far brought together 33 Co-operatives of Burundian coffee growers, with 27,000 producers in all, and is responsible for 11 per cent of coffee production nationally. Ripe cherries delivered to mill on Yandaro hill, where cherries are graded, sorted, de-pulped and then fermented underwater for approximately 12-18 hours. The parchment is then rinsed thoroughly and sorted in washing channels, and then is placed onto raised African drying beds, with initial hand sorting of parchment taking place under shade. The drying period generally lasts for up to 2-3 weeks, until moisture level reaches 11%. The coffee is turned by hand at regular intervals, and the raised beds allow for air circulation around and under the coffee. This coffee was stored for a few months in parchment, and then milled. Once milled and sorted, the green coffee was packed into Grain Pro bags and stored at altitude, before being trucked to port for sailing.
