About the Coffee
On Kigina Hill, in Burundi's Ntahangwa Commune, a microlot was set aside from the main harvest for one reason — it tasted different. Exceptional enough to separate, exceptional enough to bottle on its own.
It's processed at Kinama Washing Station, a young but fast-maturing operation: drying tables only in 2022, a full wet mill, warehouse and office added by 2023. Now producing 60 tons of green coffee a year, sourced from 92 farmers on Kigina Hill. Behind it is Migoti Coffee Company — founded in 2015 by engineers Dan and Pontien — built on transparent sourcing and processing infrastructure that pays farmers for quality, not just volume.
One of those farmers is Gaspard Nahimana, 58, farming at 1,730 masl. He tends 3,800 Bourbon trees and delivers roughly 250kg of cherry a season into this microlot. Coffee income has put his children through school — one currently at university — and he's working toward 5,000 productive trees. In a region where cherry prices routinely fail to cover rising living costs, that's not a small thing.
Naturally processed Bourbon, high-altitude, single microlot. Expect vivid tropical fruit, strawberry, crisp red apple acidity, and a bergamot lift that finishes clean and tea-like.
Barista Notes — Filter
Natural process, high elevation, delicate aromatics — this lot wants space, not intensity.
- Ratio: 1:16 (15g in, 240g out) — lets the tropical fruit and strawberry notes lead without getting muddied
- Time: 3:00–3:30 — a slower draw-down pulls the dense high-altitude sugars fully, bringing out the red apple acidity
- Temp: 94–96°C — needed to unlock the bergamot aromatics at this elevation and keep the finish clean, not muted

We Aim to Match, But Conditions Apply!
We strive to offer the most competitive prices in Australia for all your coffee brewing needs. While we're confident in our pricing, we're human, and occasionally, a competitor might slip a lower price past our radar. That's where you come in! If you spot a better deal elsewhere, we'll gladly match it, with some fair conditions to ensure a level playing field.
Here's the scoop:
- Aussie rivals only: The competitor must be an Australian retailer with prices in AUD and shipping from within our great nation.
- Brand buddies: They must be an authorised retailer of the specific brand you're eyeing.
- Twinsies, please: The product needs to be an exact match, brand new in its box, and readily available.
- Delivery included: We'll factor in the competitor's delivery cost for an apples-to-apples comparison.
Now, for some exceptions, where our price-matching magic might not work:
- Cashback & discounts: We can't match deals involving cashback offers or special discount coupons.
- Bulk buys: Commercial quantity pricing is a different beast, so we won't match those either.
- Clearance frenzy: Stock liquidation sales are temporary deals, and we can't keep up with their ever-changing prices.
- History can't be rewritten: We can't adjust past orders that have already been processed.
- Auction arena: Prices from auction sites like eBay or Catch of the Day aren't eligible.
The rare exception:
In extraordinary situations, we might not be able to match a competitor's price exactly. But don't worry, we'll still offer you the best possible price we can, because your coffee happiness matters to us!
So, there you have it! With these guidelines in mind, feel free to share any lower prices you find, and let's brew up some fair competition!
