A great reflection of it's terroir. We love it.

Butegana is the country’s oldest washing station, established in the early 1950s. It sits strategically on the slopes of Shikankoni and Nkuba Hill. At the time, King Mwambutsa had the station built to make the most of the abundance of coffee plants in the region.

Neighboring Rwanda, Burundi is part of the highly regarded East African coffee origins. It shares certain similarities with its neighbors, while still expressing a character of its own.  Elegant, well-structured, and marked by vibrant aromatic qualities. 

Keep your coffee fresh

Then it reaches its brewing flavor peak up till 8 weeks. If you won’t use it within two months, you can portion and freeze your coffee to maintain freshness.
