This Rwanda Single Origin coffee is sourced from the Liza washing station in South West Rwanda near Kamembe. It is a Red Bourbon varietal grown at 1600+ meters altitude, processed using the washed method. The coffee is produced by Jean Paul, a second-generation coffee farmer and agronomy consultant who works with local smallholder farmers. The beans feature tasting notes of orange, caramel, and cranberry, offering a well-balanced cup that works well as espresso and filter, with or without milk.
Bradley and Amelia started Horsham Coffee Roaster in 2012, roasting on a 1kg machine in their garage. The operation has since grown into a purpose built roastery in Burgess Hill, Sussex, where they roast daily on a Loring S35 low emissions roaster. They became the first UK roaster to sign The Pledge at transparency.coffee and maintain direct trade relationships in Rwanda, Kenya, Costa Rica, and Brazil. Most of their coffees score 85 or above on the SCA scale. They also co own Bond Street Coffee in Brighton, listed by The Telegraph among Britain's top 30 coffee shops. BBC Good Food named their subscription the UK's Best Ethical Coffee Subscription.
