It carries warmth and sweetness, yet stays precise and balanced all the way through. \u003c\/strong\u003eBlackberry, caramel and brown sugar build the foundation, while a bright orange-like acidity keeps the cup lively and structured. The honey process adds roundness and natural sweetness, without ever taking over. Generous, expressive and beautifully put together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe have been buying coffee from Long Miles for 12 years now, but the last time we released a coffee from Ninga Hill was in 2022. Being back with not just one, but two coffees from this hill in our Farmers series is something we’ve genuinely been looking forward to.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eCoffee facts\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long Miles Coffee Project\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kayanza, Burundi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWashing station:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ninga Washing Station\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAltitude:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1800 m.a.s.l.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVariety:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red Bourbon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProcess:\u003c\/strong\u003e Honey\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlavours:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blackberry, caramel, brown sugar and bright orange-like acidity\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eLONG MILES COFFEE PROJECT\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLong Miles Coffee Project is one of our longest and most meaningful relationships. A collaboration built on trust, persistence and a shared belief that coffee can - and must - be done better.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBen and Kristy Carlson moved to Burundi in 2011 after seeing both injustice and poor farming practices shaping the country’s newly privatised coffee industry. At the same time, they recognised something else: coffees with enormous potential that were rarely paid for at their true value. When they also saw how difficult it was for roasters around the world to access consistently great coffees from Burundi, Long Miles Coffee Project was born.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday, Long Miles works directly with over 14,000 smallholder coffee-farming families on traceable hills in Burundi, Uganda and Kenya. In Burundi, they operate three washing stations - Bukeye, Heza and Ninga - processing coffee from around a dozen distinct hills, each with its own expression and identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNinga Washing Station sits high above the Nkokoma River. It was built after Long Miles realised that farmers from Ninga Hill were travelling long distances to reach washing stations with fair scales and fair payment. By bringing processing closer to the farms, the time between picking and processing is shortened - improving cup quality while making daily life more sustainable for producers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoffee production at Long Miles follows two paths: owning and operating washing stations and model farms, and building long-term partnerships with cooperatives and independent producers. Across both models, the commitment is year-round - through Coffee Scouts, Farmer Field Schools, Coffee Kids Camp and other community initiatives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoffee is never just coffee here. It is relationship, responsibility and long-term thinking. For us, Long Miles is a clear example of how better coffee becomes reality - from plant to cup.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Farmers","offers":[{"title":"250 g \/ Hela Bönor","offer_id":56404726513988,"sku":"Farmers05","price":18.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0527\/2213\/9300\/files\/J_N_Farmers05_Long-Miles-Coffee-Project_Honey_Packshot-bg.jpg?v=1772024216","url":"https:\/\/johanochnystrom.live\/products\/long-miles-coffee-project-honey-farmers05","provider":"Johan \u0026 Nyström","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
