A bit about the peaberry It's a rare occurrence in coffee, forming as a single, rounded seed within the coffee cherry instead of the usual two flat beans. Prized for their distinct flavour, sweetness, and brightness, peaberry beans are sought after by coffee connoisseurs for their exceptional quality.

A bit about Baho Coffee Baho’s vision on community is guided by having a synergetic relationship with the community of farmers that we work with, where we guide them and create solutions in a replicable, sustainable and scalable manner leading to economic growth and poverty reduction. Our overall vision is implied by the meaning of our name, Baho, which in our local language means live/life. It is like a tree that grows up and has branches, flowers and fruits and still keeps its roots in the ground. Baho is born, grows up and sells coffee both locally and internationally and never forgets the origin. - Emmanuel Rusatira Founder and CEO of Baho (visit Baho Coffee's website here)
