Introduction of Burundian coffee beans

Burundian coffee was first brought in by the Germans in the 1900s; they found that bourbon was the most suitable for growing in the local climate, which is usually a "tropical" plateau climate with a very large temperature difference between day and night. However, due to the suspension of investment in coffee research, bourbon has become the only coffee variety left in the country and has been treated with "full washing".

The development of boutique coffee needs continuous breakthrough and innovation. In 2014, Long Miles Coffee Project (LMCP) began to use sun treatment and honey treatment for their coffee, which made professional coffee cup testers overjoyed at the taste of the coffee. According to Miss Gu Qinru, head of Latorre & Dutch Coffee Asia, "usually we can drink citrus and plum flavors in washed Burundian coffee. And this is our first cup of Burundian coffee treated with sun and honey. Its flavor turns into more complex strawberries, grapes and tropical fruits. It seems that the way it is handled is crucial to the taste of the coffee.

Traceability is a common problem faced by coffee growers, raw bean buyers and coffee roasters. There are currently about 3500 families working for LMCP. Production harvesting areas are distributed on eight different hilltops and two processing plants-Bukeye (operational in 2013) and Heza (operational in 2014). There are many variables that affect the quality of the final beans. For example, each mountain has a different microclimate, which in turn affects the growth, picking and handling of coffee fruits, and varies from day to day. Nathan James Johnston, the boss of Cartel Coffee Roasters in Australia, said: "working with Long Miles, we can know exactly where, when and who picked the coffee, which means a lot to us.
