This lot, rather than coming from an isolated hill as with the other Longmiles selections, comes from a range around the Bukeye washing station, and consists only of coffee from farmers participating in the Farmer Field Schools program. In the cup we taste a classic Burundi profile of black tea, purple fruits, and baking spice.
