Producer overview

Long Miles Coffee Project operates across Burundi, sourcing coffee from diverse regions including Bumba Hill, Butanyerera, Gaharo, Gedeb, Kayanza, and Muramvya. Their production occurs at altitudes ranging from 1672 to 2200 meters above sea level.

The varietal landscape is dominated by bourbon and red bourbon, which account for the majority of their catalog entries. Other varieties represented in their production include SL34, Mibirizi, and SL28.

The producer maintains a diverse process portfolio. While washed coffees are the most frequent, they also produce natural, anaerobic honey, and honey-processed lots. This range of treatments allows for a variety of profiles within their catalog.

Long Miles Coffee Project is represented by 15 different roasters in the current index. Their history includes recognition as a Cup of Excellence finalist, specifically placing 5th in 2022 with a score of 89.5 and 8th in 2020 with a score of 88.9.

Recent catalog entries include the Giku and Mikuba lots from Kiss the Hippo Coffee, both processed as washed bourbon. Other examples include the Ninga Anaerobic Honey Bourbon from Standout Coffee, the natural bourbon Espresso Single Origin from Industry Beans, and the natural bourbon Gitwe Hill from Five Senses Coffee.
