We are finally able to introduce you to Burundi. We will explain the reasons why we were unable to show you Burundi later, but we would like to introduce you to these beans.
These beans are naturally processed by the talented Businde CWS (bean processing facility), which has won awards at coffee competitions in Burundi.
Rwanda and Burundi have a history of civil war and are still struggling with the debts that resulted from it, but they are known to have suitable land for coffee production, and thanks to various capital injections, specialty coffee production is thriving.

Although it is not well known among the general public, Burundi coffee was extremely popular at the Kansai Expo, and we received inquiries about stocking it at our store. Coffee beans from Burundi and Rwanda have a problem that is difficult to explain on the e-commerce platform: the potato defect.

About Potato Defects

The cause is unclear, but coffee beans from this region sometimes contain what is called potato defects, beans that smell like raw potatoes. These beans look normal and cannot be removed by hand picking.
It would be nice if there was an opportunity to sample the product beforehand, but this is difficult to do through e-commerce, and we have refrained from selling it in our store, as we were concerned that customers who were unlucky enough to get potato beans might be disappointed.

We offer potato insurance for your peace of mind.

Therefore, in the unlikely event that you receive a bag of potato beans, we offer a potato compensation plan, where we will replace any affected bags free of charge. While the probability of receiving a potato bean is extremely low, we have decided to bear the risk so that you can shop with peace of mind.
We automatically provide coverage for beans that are at risk from potatoes in Burundi, Rwanda, etc. For more information on coverage, please see About Potato Coverage .

Roaster's comment: This Burundi coffee, which already has great potential, is refined at a high-quality coffee station (although it's a little pricey). The fruity notes of wine and cherry are combined with a firm sweetness to create a coffee that will make you think, "Wow, this is so delicious!" It's perfect for drip brewing, as well as espresso and paired with milk. I got to keep all the test roasted beans to myself. That's how highly recommended it is.
It's not suitable for light roasting, so it should be set to medium roast or higher.

Origin: Burundi Gahonbo Kayanza


Variety: Red Bourbon
Refining: Natural

Roasted beans explained

Our roasted coffee is delivered in the order in which it was ordered. However, if we receive a large number of orders, you may have to wait. In that case, we will notify you of the expected delivery date in advance.

Delivery weight is roasted weight . For dark roast, it takes approximately 225g of green beans to produce 180g of roasted beans.

There are five levels of roast to choose from, with the main focus on city roast, with medium, high, city, full city and French equivalent.

Guide to choosing roast level

If you prefer a sour taste, we recommend something lighter than City, and if you prefer a bitter taste, we recommend something City or later.

The relationship between expiration date, flavor and aroma

Our roasted beans have a very dull flavor immediately after roasting, so we don't recommend it. A few days after roasting, the aroma and flavor become stronger, peaking after about a week, then gradually decreasing after about a month, but we have confirmed that they are still delicious even after two months.

Dark roasted beans in particular have oils that oxidize, so after a few months they may develop a unique spicy aroma, but this aroma becomes less noticeable once the coffee is extracted.

Please enjoy the change in flavor that occurs over the course of several days.

*The expiration date is 3 months from the roasting date, but we recommend consuming it as soon as possible.

*The top surface of the package has been treated to release gas. This part will be discarded when opening the package, but the zipper ensures airtightness.

*Due to packaging size, we will ship two 90g packages. You can share with your friends or acquaintances.

*If you purchase multiple items, they will be delivered in multiple packages.

*Please note that the roasting level is based on our own standards, so some customers may find it too dark or too light.

*Shipping costs are included in the price of this product.

*You can change the quantity in your cart, but we recommend ordering a small amount so that you can enjoy it as soon as possible. Shipping is free, so please feel free to order one at a time .

* If we receive more orders than we can accept, we will stop accepting orders . Please wait until the next order begins. We will notify you when orders resume via email newsletter. Please register for the newsletter.

Our coffee division techniques

Our coffee is packaged in small bags of 90g to 100g each. For individual customers, even if you purchase 1kg, we will deliver 10 bags of 100g each. Packing the beans takes time and effort, and naturally the cost is higher.

But this subdivision actually has many benefits.

1: Freeze any portion you won't drink right away.

If you purchase 180g, you will receive two 90g packages. I think you can drink 90g in about a week. The remaining 90g will be stored unopened for a while, so try storing it in the freezer. Freezing coffee beans can prevent the flavor from changing . For example, if you feel that the coffee tastes great about a week after you receive it, try storing it at room temperature for a week and then putting it in the freezer. This will keep the flavor intact.

If you use the freezer in the same way with 10 bags, even if it will take a month to drink them all, you can keep the flavor for a long time by taking one bag out of the freezer at a time .

There is no problem with grinding frozen beans while they are still frozen. In fact, it is recommended to grind them as it prevents condensation when thawing. Therefore, it is also effective to grind the frozen beans in small portions, just as much as you will need .

2: Share with your friends

Our coffee is designed with the theme of "shareable." The standard package contains two coffees, with the idea that it is easy to share the enjoyment with someone .
If you want to share something with your partner, such as "This coffee was delicious, so please try it," please make use of the other package. You can also have one for home and one for work .

The packaging we use is made of gas-barrier material, has a resealable zipper, and is self-supporting. It's a little pricey, but it's enough for storing about 90g of coffee without having to prepare a coffee canister. After use, roll it up and throw it away as burnable garbage (depending on the local government, it may be treated as plastic garbage).

Naturally, our packaging looks good and is easy to use, but it is also easy to throw away.
