Description

ORIGIN: Our coffee originates in the Country of a Thousand Hills, Rwanda. The region has a landscape characterized by high mountains with very steep slopes that flow into valleys, forests and volcanos. The altitude varies between 1,800m and 2,200m above sea level, the average annual temperature is 18°C which varies with altitude. The coffee variety grown in this area is Arabica, processed using clean water from natural springs of the Nyungwe forest and dried by the sun on raised drying tables. Our coffee beans produce a luscious aroma, flavor and taste as a result of the combined effect of Agro-Ecological conditions in which our coffees are grown and practices that emphasize on top quality processing. WHY WE SELL COFFEE: We believe in giving back. When you purchase any of our products, one dollar from each transaction goes towards a local non-profit. Additionally, we believe in giving back to the hard-working women in Eastern Congo, Uganda, and Rwanda who harvest the beans in order to provide education for their children and health insurance for their entire households. We partner with Children's Voice, a non-profit based in Eastern DR Congo, providing shelter and education to women and children who are victims of rape and war violence. The coffee processed in these areas is known as “women's coffee,’’ due the fact that women contribute to the majority of the value chain. Women’s Coffee Alliance, a partner of our company, has a mandate to ensure that Women are empowered in the coffee community to achieve sustainable lives and confirm the participation of women in coffee value chain.
