Gasharu – Rwanda
Olisipo Coffee RoastersAbout This Coffee
This coffee comes from smallholder producers at the Gasharu Coffee Washing Station in Nyamasheke, Western Province, Rwanda, grown at 1,520 meters altitude. It is a Red Bourbon variety processed using anaerobic natural fermentation, where ripe cherries are sealed in plastic tanks for over 100 hours before being sun-dried on raised African beds. Roasted for filter, it offers tasting notes of vanilla, skittles, and melon, with a creamy, white chocolate body and a bourbon liquor-like finish.
