About the coffee

Burundi is a small country in East Africa. Crossed by a plateau, it offers ideal growing conditions for Arabica coffee. Fertile and mineral-rich volcanic rock soils and a tropical, humid climate are perfect conditions for the slow and gentle ripening of the coffee cherries. This coffee is a washed coffee that has been dried on raised beds for 20-25 days.

The Red Bourbon variety has a light body with the acidity of green apple, fruity notes of red currant, Ceylon tea in the finish.

About the farm


The Izuba Wash Station is located near a river near Kayanza Province in Burundi, which provides an important source of fresh water for coffee processing. Where possible, the station offers bonuses not only to the farmers but also to the staff. After the coffee is processed, the coffee residues are turned into a natural fertiliser and distributed to local farmers to add nutrients to their soils. The Izuba washing station buys the cherries from smallholder farmers in the region and processes them into washed, honey, and natural coffee.

Through the processing stations, farmers are guaranteed prices and the value of the coffee is guaranteed through careful quality control. This ensures the highest quality coffee for the consumer and the greatest profitability for the farmers.
Cultivation

Cultivated with love by great farmers. 100% Arabica coffee, harvested when ripe and carefully processed. Sustainable and fairly traded.

Packaging

The 19grams capsule advent calendar is 100% recyclable and made from 100% recyclable materials. Even the capsules are compostable.

It doesn't get any greener than this!

Brewing

Our capsules contain 7g of coffee - that's a little more than commercial capsules from other suppliers like Nespresso. Therefore, use a little more water when brewing - like a lungo.

More about the farm

Die Izuba Waschstation liegt in der Nähe eines Flusses bei der Provinz Kayanza in Burundi, der eine wichtige Frischwasserquelle für die Kaffeeverarbeitung bietet. Die Station bietet nach Möglichkeit nicht nur den Bauern, sondern auch dem Personal Prämien. Nach der Verarbeitung des Kaffees werden die Kaffeereste in einen natürlichen Dünger verwandelt und an die örtlichen Bauern verteilt, um ihren Böden Nährstoffe zuzuführen. Die Izuba Waschstation kauft die Kirschen von Kleinbauern aus der Region und verarbeitet sie zu washed, honey, and natural Kaffees.

Durch die Verarbeitungsstationen werden den Bauern Preise garantiert und der Wert des Kaffees durch eine sorgfältige Qualitätskontrolle garantiert. Dies gewährleistet die höchste Qualität des Kaffees für den Verbraucher und die größte Rentabilität für die Bauern.
