About Burundi

Burundi shares Rwanda's bones — high hills, Red Bourbon, and thousands of sub-hectare family plots delivering cherry to communal washing stations — but far less of its fame. That is the drinker's gain: washed lots from Kayanza and Ngozi in the north are berry-bright and juicy with a tea-like elegance, at prices the equivalent Rwandan or Kenyan lot left behind years ago. One of the most rewarding origins to explore station by station.
