We select coffees based on cup profile and processing standards, focusing on clean, vibrant, and juicy washed lots, as well as a growing number of expressive naturals. With full traceability and transparent relationships, we can offer reliable quality year after year. Our presence in Rwanda during the season allows for frequent cupping, QC support, and control over logistics and documentation.
