What Olisipo Coffee Roasters says about this coffee
ORIGIN
Rwanda is blessed with ideal coffee growing conditions that include high altitude, regular rainfall, volcanic soils with good organic structure and an abundance of the classic arabica variety, Red Bourbon. A large majority of Rwandan coffee is cultivated by smallholder producers who intercrop and grow their coffee on parcels of land often not much larger than just one hectare per family. Coffee is grown in most parts of the country, especially along Lake Kivu and in the southern province.
PRODUCER
Just a few miles inland from the Kirambo village at the edge of Lake Kivu, is the Karambi washing station where this coffee is processed. Located on steep slopes, coffee is harvested by farmers who live and work within three kilometers of the washing station.
The facility was established in 2016 when the Rwandan Trading Company took ownership. Four full time staff are employed throughout the year with an addition of 60 further staff during the harvest, of whom 90% are women. More than 1500 smallholder producers contribute their coffee cherries to the station and since 2017, annual production has doubled from 220 tons of cherry processed to 400 this year.

What the roaster says about where it came from
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.
How it sits among coffee from Rwanda
Olisipo Coffee Roasters describe this coffee as fruity, floral, tea-like. The filled shape is how often roasters use each family across coffee from Rwanda; the rings on the rim are this coffee’s own.
tea-like and floral are unusual here — 12% of coffee from Rwanda are described that way, and 20% of coffee from Rwanda are described that way.

These are claims the roaster makes about its business, not about this coffee, and we have not checked them against any register.

A further 3 facts on this page were read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for them.
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.
