## What the Brand Says

> Juicy-sweet florals body with lime zest & red currant. This washed iteration of Gitwe Hill is from the collaboration between the Gitwe Community and the nearby Heza Washing Station. Heza is built into the face of a cliff overlooking the Kibira rainforest; the border of Burundi and Rwanda. The rainforest looms only 2.4 miles in the distance. The washed Gitwe Hill presents in a more delicate nature and highlights the flavours from this terroir rich environment. You can expect a juicy-sweet floral body, with lime zest & red currant.
