About the Origin:

“People’s Farm” Coffee

The boutique Kivubelt group in western Rwanda acquired two washing stations in the immediate area, Murundo CWS and Jarama CWS. Combined, these 2 stations service more than 500 smallholders coffee farmers in the region. Smallholder coffee processed at the washing stations has come to be known as “People’s Farm” coffee, to acknowledge the teamwork required of smallholders and processors who, when acting together, can have the same commanding presence as a large single estate.

Nyamasheke District

The Nyamasheke district in Rwanda is gifted in terroir. The cool, humid climates of both Lake Kivu and the Nyungwe Forest National Park keep precipitation and groundwater abundant throughout the uniquely steep, hilly region. Kivu itself is part of the East African Rift whose consistent drift creates volcanic seepage from the lake’s bottom and enriches the surrounding soils. Coffees from this region are often fuller, jammier in balance and more layered than in the rest of the country. 

We hope you will enjoy RWANDA NYAMASHEKE, as you will feel transported to the picturesque landscapes where farmers nurture these beans with dedication and expertise.
