Ruanda – Huye Mountain

About This Coffee

This coffee is grown at altitudes up to 2,200 meters in the fertile hills of the Huye District in southern Rwanda. The variety is Red Bourbon, produced by David Rubanzangabo and processed using the washed method. Growing at elevations between 1,700-2,200 meters above sea level, it develops notes of fresh blood orange, honey-like sweetness from dark dried fruits, and subtle hints of milk chocolate. The coffee is soft, harmonious, and well-balanced.

Schvarz Kaffee

Arthur Fuchs and Erkan Karakaya founded Schvarz Kaffee in 2015 in Düsseldorf's Flingern Nord district, establishing their roastery inside the historic Alte Farbwerke industrial complex. The team sources beans directly from small farms and cooperatives with a focus on long standing relationships, sustainability, and fair pricing across multiple origin countries. Their creative identity shines through blend names inspired by airport codes: VRN for Verona, FLR for Florence, LAX for Los Angeles, and DUS for their home city. Head of Coffee Luthfan Satrio Pradipto, an Indonesian coffee professional, won the 2024 German Brewers Cup Championship and represented Germany at the World Brewers Cup in Chicago that same year. Fuchs and Karakaya also co founded QUBE, an Indonesian specialty coffee importer, further deepening their connection to origin and giving Schvarz an unusually direct pipeline to exceptional Southeast Asian coffees.
