This coffee is the result of the dream of the Ben Carlson family, a family "passionate about producing amazing coffee and caring for the well-being of the coffee farmers who grow it."  Their Long Miles Coffee Project is helping build a strong coffee sector in one of the poorest countries in the world.  Since moving to Burundi and building a mill, Long Miles coffees have been a finalist in their national competitions.  To learn more, click here.

A winding six kilometre walk from the Heza washing station, Nkonge hill produces a unique coffee full of impact. Natural springs find their way out of the hill on Nkonge, making sure its soil is always well watered. Nkonge’s high elevation fosters a harder, slower growing coffee bean. This slow growth coupled with the nutrient rich soil on Nkonge produces a floral and sweet cup.

Exotic, adventurous, and exceptional.

Green, unroasted coffee beans.  Roast and enjoy.
