Curator's Notes

According to Herkimer, you can only access this farm by motorbike, making it an isolated hilltop paradise. This coffee comes from Burundi’s own secret garden: no wonder we’re enchanted.

Roaster's Notes

Sweet red seed fruits, cherry, and pomegranate. The acid profile also features some floral rose-hip adding to the juicy fruit. Ultra clean texture with a soft creamy body. The finish remains long and refreshing displaying all of the above traits. Direct relationship, Long Miles Coffee Project. Bourbon and Jackson cultivars, fully washed. Elevation of 1927 masl. Mikuba means “hill that cannot be divided.” It was planted in 1933. The hill houses 232 farmers.

"A really good coffee and a new favorite. Deeply flavorful cut with a hint of citrus to make it super enjoyable to sip and appreciate. (pour over)"

"Strong taste of cherry. I liked it alot, but not for everyone. light roast that is definitely unique and worth a try."

"This is a very unusual coffee. It's a very light roast with some of the biggest flavors Ive ever seen in this kind of roast. It is as juicy as it comes. Pomegranate, cherry, and to me, hints of lemon. Its absolutely bursts with fruit flavors."

"This brew is quite earthy tasting to me but it has a nice "acidity" note to it as well. "

"So great. I ground by hand with a burr grinder and made in my aeropress with heavy cream. The perfect sweet warm morning treat. The smell alone is delightful. A person might think that the lower cost beans are not as good, but this variety would prove them wrong. "

"I am a huge pomegranate fan, so this was great! I could even have done with a stronger taste of it."

"Personally, I did not care for this coffee at all. It is very tart (almost to the point of making me pucker when I first tasted it). If you enjoy fruity coffees, then you will likely enjoy this one. It is just not my preference."

"Yummy brew held up to an espresso. Sweet notes were enjoyed. "

"A wonderfully juicy brew! For a washed bean, this light roasted Burundi packs a lot of berry flavor. It's juicy mouth-feel is a pleasure at every sip. Lightly chocolate, lightly floral and gentle acidity. Love the story behind the bean as well. Herkimer does it again!"
