Katana Village, Kabare, South Kivu
The Katana station is one of a handful of Congo coffee processing sites under a privately ran coffee project called Virunga Coffee. The Katana site is located in South Kivu and serves several hundred farmers in the region.
Katana sits at 1700 meters above sea level and the farmed area spans a range of 1450 to 1750 meters, benefiting from high altitude and nutrient rich, volcanic soil.
Farmers are growing Blue Mountain, a mutation of Typica first discovered in Jamaica's Blue Mountains. Katana only produces natural and honey process coffees which have a much lower demand for water.
The Virunga Coffee group has also assisted with certifications (UTZ and Organic) that not only lend to sustainable agricultural practice, but also ensure an added price premium for the coffee growers.
