Not stated

farm or estate, producer, altitude, harvest, lot, importer, price paid to the producer

We report what the roaster publishes and we have not checked any of it independently. A fact nobody publishes is not a fault of the coffee: almost no roaster in the UK states an importer or the price paid to the producer.

Where each fact came from

Variety

“Established in 2003, Gatare draws from the exceptional harvests of local smallholders, whose volcanic soils and high-altitude plots create the perfect conditions for the prized Red Bourbon varietal.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Flavour families

“Boasting a superb cup score of 85, it delivers a rich, multi-layered profile defined by indulgent notes of fudge and dark chocolate, beautifully balanced by dried fruits, a hint of rum, warming nutmeg, and a vibrant touch of orange zest.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Country of origin

“The Rwanda Gatare Coffee Story Nestled among the dramatic, coffee-covered hills of the Nyamasheke district in Western Rwanda, lies Gatare—one of the nation's oldest and most prestigious washing stations.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Tasting notes

Taken from the roaster’s own pages, and nothing here has been verified by us or by an independent body. What we store is a passage of page text cut around the fact, so one shown with an ellipsis is a passage we cannot see the start or the end of; only the fully quoted ones are complete sentences.
