Coffee Bio:

This coffee comes from the Rwiri washing station, near Matongo, Northern Burundi, and close to the border with Rwanda. It is produced by small-holders whose farms are typically smaller than 1 hectare. As such, the cooperative plays a crucial role in offering them access to market by aggregating their production per washing station, delivery date and quality.

Coffee cherries are collected three times a week. The natural lots are dried on African raised beds for three weeks before milling.

Yagikawa Cooperative:

Yagikawa was founded in 2007 and is one of the oldest cooperatives in Burundi. They collect coffee from 800 small-holders in the neighbouring 12 hills.

In the country’s official language, Kirundi, the name means “Talk about coffee”.
