We’re very excited to be offering coffee from producer Faustin Ribilimana for the first time. Having grown up in a prominent coffee-producing family, Faustin has over four decades of experience growing coffee. He is meticulous in his practices; his is one of the most methodically planted farms we’ve ever visited in Rwanda.
It’s rare to be able to offer a single-producer coffee from Rwanda. It’s possible in this case because of the size of Faustin’s farm, which is roughly double the local average, with 1240 trees. It’s also made possible by the Dukunde Kawa Cooperative (of which Faustin is a member), who operate their own dry mill, where they’re able to process smaller individual lots.
We selected this lot off the cupping table on a recent visit to Rwanda, and there was immediate consensus among our coffee-buying team – this coffee is outstanding! We love its silky texture and sweet, delicate cup profile, and we hope to share Faustin’s coffees for many years to come.
