About this coffee:
The remotest of the remote! That's often where you find the
prize. In the hills of Muyinga Province, the farmers of Hafi coffee
would face more than a day's journey if they tried to deliver their
freshly harvested coffees to the nearest wet mill. That's why all
Ha coffees are naturally processed. It was even difficult for JNP
Coffee to visit them as it's a six-hour journey from the capital,
if the roads aren't washed out. Jeanine did visit
though, and what she found was that these farmers in their
remoteness had become masters of the natural process. They had
developed a 72-hour anaerobic process for closing the coffee
cherries in raised beds. This controlled fermentation adds a
jamminess to their coffees as well as other wonderfully complex
multi-layered- flavors. Hafi is named for the farmers’ desire
to someday have a washing station nearby. In Kirundi, Ha means
"close."
