About Long Miles Coffee Project of Burundi
Every year we sample any lots we can get our hands on from Long Miles Coffee Project. Long Miles is an organization created by Ben & Kristy Carlson located in Kayanza Burundi that we have worked with since 2015. They realized that Burundi had the potential of producing some of the worlds best coffee, so they came along side the farmers in Kayanza and have grown LMCP into one of the most recognizable coffee initiatives in the world.

Five & Hoek
Five & Hoek, roasting since 2011, is focused on living life in community and connecting with others (or themselves with a good book) through coffees that tell stories. Their own story starts in India, where owners Tyler and Erich fell in love with the laid back culture experienced in tea gardens (and rickshaw rides), and brought back a desire to share that experience through the avenue of coffee and community.
Five & Hoek opened their Wheaton cafe in 2014, and are expanding to put both cafe and roastery under the same roof in 2019, where they will continue to source and roast both approachable and experimental coffees. They serve delicious coffee and inspire community through local customers and producers partners as they live out their tagline, “Coffee / Connection / Community.
