Bami, Burundi

The product of heritage plants with no genetic modification, this coffee is processed at the Bwayi washing station, a three-time Cup of Excellence winner in 2018 alone. Bami benefits from a particular microclimate in northwestern Burundi, an area known for Kibira National Park and its vast primeval rainforest. This coffee is sourced from a native Burundian, Jeanine Niyonzima, who saw so much potential for quality at Bwayi that she invested in the mill herself, allowing for a rare transparent, direct connection from Ritual to the growers of this exceptional offering.
