Rwanda Musozi
Rwamatamu Coffee is a Rwandan coffee producer established in 2015. Located in the Nyamasheke District of Rwanda’s Western Province, Rwamatamu is known for its commitment to quality coffee production, sustainable practices, and its strong community impact. Operating in one of Rwanda’s prime coffee-growing regions, Rwamatamu collaborates with local cooperatives, prioritising the economic and social wellbeing of the farmers they work with. Rwamatamu Coffee’s primary operations are located at high elevations in Rwanda’s tropical highland climate, where the combination of volcanic soil, altitudes of 1,600–2,000 metres, and moderate temperatures provide ideal conditions for growing arabica coffee. When the cherries arrive at Rwamatamu’s Nyamasheke washing station, they are sorted to remove defects and under- or over-ripe cherries. Next, cherries are run through a pulping machine and the pulped coffee is left in tanks to ferment for 8 to 12 hours. After fermentation, coffee is washed through before being transferred to raised drying beds. Here, workers will sort through the beans, further removing defects and turning the coffee over the course of 17 to 25 days.

Roasters Notes Rwanda Musozi
Hitting up front with a sea buckthorn tang, this fantastic coffee soon cools to soft, brown sugar sweetness balanced beautifully against the acidity of green apples and red grapes.
About Rwanda
The majority of coffee in Rwanda is grown by small-scale farmers, typically organised into cooperatives that share the services of centralised wet-mills. Almost all of Rwanda’s coffee is one of several long-established Bourbon varieties. This is closely guarded by the country’s government and gives Rwandan coffees a unique bright fruitiness and acidity.

Following the genocide, coffee production was one of the key drivers of economic growth. Rwanda is now one of the ‘go to’ origins for specialty coffee today.
