MIGOTI - BURUNDI

It's with a warm heart and open arms we welcome back a coffee from Migoti. This stunning natural from Kinama Hill in Bujumbura has a candy like sweetness and berry fruitiness- think red skittles ;) Soft stone fruits combine with velvety honey, reminding us of how we fell in love with these coffees a couple of years ago. Migoti Coffee Company has started a number of incredible initiatives over the past few years. In 2023, they introduced a micro-financing program that provides small loans to farmers, allowing them to invest in essential items without resorting to cash advances from independent coffee traders. Last year, they began constructing a water reservoir and pipe network near the Kinama washing station to address local water access issues. The initiative, expected to serve over 4,800 residents, will provide clean drinking water to local families, reduce waterborne diseases, and support better educational outcomes for girls who typically shoulder the responsibility of fetching water.
