Farm details
Producer Story:
From simple beginnings, Gasharu Coffee emerged out of the
entrepreneurial spirit of Celestin Rumenerangabo who started his
coffee business in 1976 at the age of 17. Through him, Gasharu
coffee has developed a coffee culture and tradition over the last
40 years and has established strong relationships with coffee
farmers’ families. Increasing income and improving the
livelihoods of our community remain the main values of Gasharu
Coffee.
This lot is inspired by the emotional connection of our family to
the coffee community as a whole. Coffee farming, processing and
distribution for consumption have been kept in silos and our family
believes that this can change. The idea of this coffee is to
provide the most authentic coffee cup of Rwandan coffee to coffee
lovers, making the consumer think of the producer as the grower
also keeps the buyer in mind when processing the coffee.
The Gasharu Coffee Washing Station team takes great care to
monitor and enhance the fermentation process and duration to
achieve the desired complexity and depth that will provide a
memorable experience to coffee lovers. At Gasharu Coffee, we
believe that a cup of authentic coffee can truly connect
communities.
