Gakenke
Burundi
Pear / Satsuma / Lavender
story
This coffee is grown at elevations of 1,650–1,950 masl by smallholder producers in Kayanza province, where the majority of Burundi’s coffee is produced. Farmers typically cultivate less than half a hectare of land, growing coffee alongside crops such as bananas, beans, yams, taro, and cassava.
Cherries are selectively handpicked and delivered to Gakenke Washing Station, established in 1991, where the coffee is centrally processed. Through their work with local washing stations, many smallholder farmers gain access to investment, education, and improved infrastructure, supporting both quality and long-term sustainability.
