About
This coffee is grown at 1,650–1,950 masl by smallholder producers in the Ngozi region of Burundi. Farmers typically cultivate around 250 coffee trees on less than one hectare of land. Cherries are selectively handpicked by farmers and delivered to Gihere Washing Station, established in 1984, where the coffee is centrally processed. Through their relationship with the washing station, many smallholder farmers gain access to investment, education, and improved infrastructure, supporting both quality and long-term development.
