The Southern Province is one of Rwanda’s five provinces created in the early 2000’s after a restructuring of governmental structures. It is mountainous and contains part of the montane forest of Nyungwe, a popular tourist destination and one of the last remaining forest areas of Rwanda.
This coffee is sourced from the community of 950 farmers around the Fuji Washing Station in the Nyaruguru district of the Southern Province. Located almost directly on the border with Burundi, the washing station employs 70 people at the peak of the season. On average, the producers bringing coffee to Fugi manage between 170 - 200 trees, equal to about one and a half exportable bags of green coffee per producer. This illustrates just how small producers in Rwanda are on average, and why they sell to washing stations rather than developing their own costly wet and dry mills.
The resulting cup reminds us of chocolate, brown sugar & maple butter.
