Now that Burundi Ngozi is back, I am just a little bit obsessed with it, and I am sure you’ll see more pairings with this coffee. I have been so busy lately, and this coffee has really motivated me to get back into developing recipes and pairings. It is what I love to do most after all! Two updates in one week is pretty much unheard of over here, so enjoy it while it lasts! 😉
Last week I was asked to do a coffee tasting, and as I mentioned in my previous post, Burundi Ngozi was the first reserve coffee I had when I moved to Seattle. This pairing is actually inspired by a pairing I did for this coffee and my original blog (which never saw the light of day) but it was so good, I really wanted to bring it back… so here it is!…
I remember when Burundi Ngozi was first introduced to the Starbucks Reserve line. It was in 2013, I was living in Seattle, and it was one of the first Reserve coffees I had there. I was obsessed with the black tea like aromas and cinnamon spice notes. Now, it’s been 5 years, but Burundi Ngozi has come back around a few times, and each time it steals a little piece of my heart.
