Intensely sweet, with a juicy body and clean finish. Strawberry, apple and cherry with tea-rose florals.

It is very rare to get coffee traceable to a single producer in Rwanda, so we feel extremely fortunate to be able to share this special lot from Victoria Mukamurenzi's farm Kinyonzo-Jango.

Most of the coffees we source from Rwanda can be traced back to a washing station or, sometimes, a farmer's group. Most washing stations in Rwanda receive cherry from hundreds (and sometimes thousands) of farmers who own very small plots of land – on average less than a quarter hectare, with just 300-600 coffee trees. Separating such tiny lots is expensive and impractical, so most coffees are processed as a mixed lot from multiple producers. Typically, lots are separated as day lots (i.e., cherries picked on the same day) rather than by a single farm or producer group.

Single-producer micro-lots like this one are difficult to access, especially from such a small producer (Victoria owns 216 trees). One of the reasons this lot separation is possible is that Victoria is a member of the Dukunde Kawa Cooperative, which operates their own dry mill, where it can process smaller lots individually whilst minimising cost and maintaining excellent quality standards.

A. We do our production roasting on every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday (except public holidays), and roasted coffees are stored in the warehouse for a few days for the dispatch of orders. 

B. All the coffees are sent from the stock(warehouse) unless it requires a specific roasting date. Thus, the coffees you will receive will be between 2 and 7 days after the roasting. 

C. If a specific roasting date is requested, it might take a little longer (1-2 days) to get delivered.

D. All orders are dispatched on the next day (except public holidays).

NORMCORE STYLE SUPER LIGHT ROASTING

We roast our single-origin coffees as lightly as possible. It's often lighter than the standard light-roast profile (Our development time ratio is 8-10%, while a typical light roast's ratio is around 13-16%).

Regardless of its origin, varietal or process, our approach is to maximise the flavour profile of the coffee by minimising flavours caused by roasting. Our single-origin coffees have a delightful silky texture and well-balanced taste, despite being lightly roasted.

DAMN GOOD COFFEE ONLY.
