Favourite Pear is soft, elegant, and quietly comforting. Juicy pear sweetness drifts through delicate notes of Earl Grey, while a smooth touch of vanilla rounds out the cup with warmth and grace. This Burundi coffee feels familiar from the very first sip—gentle, refined, and easy to fall in love with.

Coffee Information

About The Farm

This coffee is processed at the Umoco washing station near Kayanza, where producers deliver handpicked cherries on foot, bicycle, or motorcycle. Farms are small and diversified, with coffee grown alongside subsistence crops like bananas, maize, cassava, and beans. Processing involves a double fermentation—12 hours in water followed by 12 hours in cement tanks—before drying for 20–25 days on raised African beds. At elevations of 1,800–2,200 meters near the edge of Kibira National Park, the region’s red clay soils, cool climate, and high rainfall contribute to its vibrant, structured cup profiles.

Favourite Pear / Burundi

Burundi is a small, landlocked country in East Africa bordered by Tanzania, Rwanda, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Lake Tanganyika. Coffee is a critical part of the rural economy, supporting millions of smallholder farmers who rely on it as a primary cash crop. Accessing the coffee-growing region of Kayanza requires travel from the capital, Bujumbura, through steep, remote roads into the highlands where the Remera community is located.

Bland. Not able to pull flavours at all, just a basic cup of coffee.

Best Rosso Beans IMO

Fantastic. Very smooth and strong early grey notes. The pear sweetness rounds it out nicely. My favourite Rosso coffee I have had to date. It is a bit more finicky to pull shots from than others, and the beans are definitely denser, needing to up my friend weight a fair bit. Results are absolutely worth it though.

Favourite Pear is another great coffee from Rosso

Favourite Pear is another great coffee from Rosso. A little less flavour than we’ve been getting recently from Strawberry Fields, but this seems perfect for cooler fall mornings. It has a slightly creamy, hint of vanilla taste. I’d buy into the pear flavour I guess, though it’s subtle and I would never had guessed. For reference, we use a Moccamaster exclusively for morning coffee. We find that coffees that are slightly on the lighter side of a medium roast, brews the best using the Moccamaster. We’re not looking for in your face flavour for a morning coffee, but more mellow, with a subtle hint of flavour or interest.
