Burundi Mutambu Hill Lot 34 Elegant, vibrant and beautifully expressive, Burundi Mutambu Hill Lot 34 is a coffee that highlights the bright, refined character of Burundi's high-altitude coffees. Expect delicate notes of pear, black tea and sweet sultanas, creating a clean, juicy cup with a silky finish. This exceptional lot was produced in the Mutambu Commune of Burundi's Mumirwa region, where 384 smallholder farmers contributed their harvest. The lot was led by producers Erneste Habonimana, Fidele Sinzotuma, Damien Baransamaje, Philippe Ntagahoraho and Leonard Ndimugipfunsi, whose dedication and careful cultivation helped create a coffee full of clarity and complexity. Following harvest, the cherries were delivered to Migoti Coffee's washing station on Migoti Hill, where quality is prioritised at every stage of processing. The cherries were carefully sorted before fermenting for around 24 hours, then pulped and thoroughly washed. The coffee was gently pre-dried under shade for five days before spending a further two to three weeks drying slowly on raised beds in the sun. This meticulous washed process enhances the coffee's delicate fruit character while preserving its crisp, tea-like finish. Founded in 2015 by engineers Pontien Ntunzwenimana and Dan Brose, Migoti Coffee was established to improve the livelihoods of Burundi's coffee farmers through exceptional processing, transparent supply chains and long-term relationships with specialty coffee roasters. Today, the company operates two washing stations in the mountains of Bujumbura Rural, working alongside hundreds of smallholder producers to showcase the outstanding quality and potential of Burundian coffee.
