Burundi Munyinya Hill Washed

Description

Region: Kayanza, Burundi Producers: Local producers surrounding Bukeye washing station  Varietal: Field Blend, likely Red Bourbon and Mibirizi Process: Washed Tasting notes: Fresh Oranges, Cola Syrup, Orange Blossom Producer info and cup notes:  Located on the outskirts of Bukeye Village in Kayanza at 1,760masl, Bukeye washing station was the very first operation Long Miles built. Bukeye lives and breathes coffee, most of its population are coffee farmers and the surrounding producers receive both a cherry payout, and yearly premiums for quality consistency. In the cup, the cola spice notes hit first, abruptly countered by a bright orange blossom floral. As the acidity starts to peak, fresh and ripe oranges pop up, settling in with more spice and black tea notes on the finish. A strong oolong tea note crops up just in the final sips of this one, similar to a puer tea orange.  Source: Osito // Long Miles Coffee Project
