Fellow's Take on Onyx Coffee Lab Burundi Long Miles Munyinya Hill | Brew Recipe

Here's how we brewed this exclusive coffee from the world famous Onyx Coffee Lab.

Onyx was recently named the best coffee shop in North America by “The World’s 100 Best Coffee Shops” list. This lot comes from the Bukeye washing station managed by the Long Miles Coffee Project, who’ve helped to produce some of Burundi’s most beautiful coffees. It’s deliciously clean and vibrant, with notes of yellow pear, milk chocolate, and lime.
