Show Notes

In today’s episode we’re speaking with Jeanine Niyonzima-Aroian, Owner of JNP Coffee and Board Director of the Specialty Coffee Association, to get an overview of the Burundi coffee market – a vibrant, yet relatively unknown origin.

Founded in 2012, JNP Coffee produces, promotes and trades African specialty coffee and is committed to transforming lives of people in Burundi through economic empowerment. 


In this conversation Jeanine discusses the crucial role coffee plays in Burundi’s economy and her mission to raise this market’s awareness.  She also emphasises the importance of education, youth involvement, and local processing in adding value to the country’s coffee production.
