Roaster Notes
Turihamwe means 'together' in Kirundi and is the name of Burundi's first washing station built and owned exclusively by women farmers. With the support of the International Women's Coffee Alliance and importer, JNP Coffee, the Turihamwe producers pooled their coffee sales to control the production and marketing process, and doubled their total production in two short years.
