Rwanda Rugori – Filter

About This Coffee

This washed coffee is produced at the Gasharu Coffee washing station in Rwanda's Western Province, a facility bringing together over 1,650 farmers. Farm altitudes range from 1,600 to 2,100 meters with the station at 1,670 meters, benefiting from cool highland conditions, volcanic soils, and abundant rainfall. This is a fully washed experimental lot, part of the "Urugori" (Women's Crown) initiative, produced and processed solely by women as part of the station's community development and women empowerment mission.

Five Elephant Coffee Roastery

Kris and Sophie Schackman founded Five Elephant in December 2010, opening their original cafe at Reichenberger Strasse 101 in Berlin Kreuzberg while establishing a separate roasting facility on Glogauer Strasse. Head roaster Wojtek Białczak, who placed fifth at the 2019 World Barista Championship in Boston representing Germany, oversees quality on a Diedrich roaster, ensuring every batch meets exacting standards. The roastery offers espresso, filter, and omni roast profiles, with their Meridian Collection showcasing diverse terroirs and varietals from Ethiopia, Guatemala, Kenya, and the Mogiana region of São Paulo, Brazil. Every coffee is cupped after roasting for quality control and flavor profiling, a discipline that reflects their commitment to consistency across four Berlin cafe locations. Direct trade relationships built through origin travel underpin their sourcing, and wholesale distribution extends their reach to partners around the world.
