Last Chance For Two Peet’s Blends
This is your last chance to buy Peet’s Burundi—a berry perfumed and caramel textured East African coffee redolent of Kenya’s berry perfume, but with the bold, caramel texture enjoyed in Burundi.
Tucked in between Rwanda and Tanzania, Burundi sits in the heart of that grouping of East African jewels which consistently provides interesting African flavors: berries and body, clarity and heft.
Given the country’s remote location, it is difficult to get coffee out on time to be savored at the peak of the season. But Peet’s managed to do so, because Burundi coffees are at their finest this time of year.
According to Peet’s, the coffee is so good they are making it the heart of their upcoming Anniversary Blend—but it’s a treat to taste alone, so they’re also offering the top pick of the lot for one last roast.
Order online here by Tuesday, March 3, for the last roast.
Named for the indigenous Batak ethnic farmers, Peet’s Sumatra Blue Batak is a super-select coffee that grows in the Lake Toba region of North Sumatra.
Unroasted, it takes on a deep blue hue due to a unique form of processing developed in Indonesia called “wet-hulling”, which enables faster drying (this is critical, as it rains a lot in Sumatra). It also helps develop a profound, syrupy body.
Sumptuously full-bodied with the richness of late harvest dessert wine and the heady aroma of sweet, cured tobacco, this hand selected coffee won’t be available for very long.
