Story

Triangle Accent

This exceptional microlot from Burundi’s Kayanza region is sourced from more than 3,500 smallholder farmers who deliver carefully selected cherries to Greenco’s Kibingo washing station near Kibira National Park. Greenco supports local farmers through above-average cherry prices, quality incentives, education, and community programs designed to strengthen livelihoods across the region.

Family-picked cherries are pulped, density-sorted, fermented, washed, graded, and carefully dried before export. This lot was separated for its exceptional cup quality, offering a syrupy body, juicy acidity, and vibrant notes of ginger peach purée, Honeycrisp apple, panela, lemongrass, and dried tropical fruit.

Story:

Unparalleled quality, a human story, and sustainability – that’s our coffee philosophy.

Unparalleled quality. We won’t buy a coffee unless we know that it will inspire you.

A human story. Often times a producer’s story gets lost in the coffee supply chain. It’s our focus to provide a seed-to-cup experience, honoring everyone involved

Sustainability. We purchase coffees directly from producers and through brokers who share our goal of making coffee a sustainable commodity. Financially and environmentally, the coffees we purchase seek balance. Premiums paid for quality far exceed fair trade premiums and afford a more sustainable, honest model.

Combine our coffee philosophy and passion for exceptional coffees with our down-home Midwest hospitality and that, in a nutshell, is JBC Coffee Roasters. We can’t wait to share our coffee passion with you.
