Rwanda Gisheke

Thrilled to bring back a number of Rwanda coffees to showcase this spring. Sourced through the legends at Raw Material, these coffees are from Gisheke in the Nyamasheke District. Gisheke’s geographic location makes it ideal for the processing and drying of naturally processed lots. This is due to the consistent wind flow, that moves between two steep hills that lead towards Lake Kivu, Idjwi Island and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. 

This traditional natural processed coffee is a beautiful example of the complexity of Rwanda coffee in its sweetness and terroir driven notes. I'm a big fan! It's also been a coffee that we've been running on filter and espresso as it is sooooo great as a milky espresso.

In the brew I'm getting red berries, honey, clove and it is complex yet clean. raaaaaaaaaaad!

Varietal - Red Bourbon // region - Nyamasheke
