Rwanda- Gisheke Natural
Rwanda- Gisheke Natural
This Natural from Rwanda is a first for us. We've been buying from HIGA since they started and as usual Kenny Ntwali from Higa and his team continues to provide us with some of the best coffees in Rwanda.
Gisheke washing station is an area only accessible by boat. It's located in the Nyamasheke region in Western Rwanda between two large hills next to Lake Kivu. Kenny informed us that the reason Gisheke produces standout naturals is because of the breeze coming off the lake below. The breeze helps to dry the coffee evenly which helps create a clean, fruity, vibrant coffee.
