Rwanda, Gasharu

This natural-processed lot comes from the Gasharu Washing Station in the Nyamasheke district of Rwanda, located between Lake Kivu and the Nyungwe Forest National Park. Natural processing is still something of a rarity in Rwanda, due to the extended time frame needed for drying and limited space on the raised beds. Gasharu Coffee has been producing naturals since 2018; their focused efforts combined with Rwanda's ideal conditions for growing coffee has produced excellent results.
