Burundi Kayanza Bourbon
Sun showers, stone fruits, and blended textures with an exceptionally rich finish, a coffee for the serious drinker.
$8.00 — $75.00
Burundi is a shining sun shower of a cup, very dark and remarkably bright without the least acidity, its brightness dominated by piercing cherry and sugared lemon–not meyer, as some suggest, but slightly sour and zesty citrus–giving way to fluid spice notes, cardamom pods with turmeric and very slight impressions of star anise. Caramel pervades and advances to the body with a bouquet of jasmine and ume layered underneath the traditionally African fruits and spices. The cup culminates in cream-like, textured cinnamon and a full, rich aftertaste worthy of a blend, all in a single bean.
