Burundi Nemba Intenso Yeast Natural

Summary

This coffee from Burundi's Kayanza region is produced at the Nemba Washing Station, where over 1,000 smallholder farmers cultivate Red Bourbon at altitudes above 1,700 meters. Processed using the Intenso Yeast Natural method with LALCAFÉ INTENSO™ yeast, it undergoes a 36-hour controlled fermentation and is then dried on African beds for 2-3 weeks. The cup is complex and intense, featuring notes of pineapple kombucha, lime, winey tones, and dark chocolate, with juicy acidity and a sweet chocolate finish. Roasted light to highlight its fruity and fermentative character, it works well both as a filter and as a modern espresso.
