Farm Description:
Rwinyoni washing station is located near the eastern shores of Lake Kivu, in Rwanda's Rubavu district. They are currently buying from nearly 1,000 small farmers in this region, some with trees planted near the 1500 meter wet mill, and others much higher up the surrounding sloped terrain. This is a wet process lot, where the coffee cherry is pulped of the outer fruit before being fermented over night to remove all of the sticky exterior mucilage from the seed within. Once all of the fruit is washed away in long, cement washing channels, it is transferred to raised drying tables where it will dry for upwards of 10 days, until down to around 10% moisture. Like all of Rwanda, farmers here grown old Bourbon cultivars, known for its favorable cup quality when grown at high altitudes. It's worth noting that Rwinyoni won Cup of Excellence in its first year of operation with one of their dry process lots.
