Meet the People Behind Your Cup
Coffee was introduced to Rwanda in 1893 by German missionaries. Over time, smallholder farmers built it into the country’s most important export—at one point accounting for nearly 70% of total export revenue.
Rwanda has also experienced profound hardship. In 1994, the country endured a genocide that took the lives of more than 500,000 people in roughly 100 days. It remains one of the most devastating events in modern history.
In the years that followed, recovery efforts—supported in part by organizations like USAID—helped rebuild the country’s coffee sector. Today, smallholder farmers have restored Rwanda’s place as one of the world’s most respected coffee origins.
This lot comes from farmers in Rwanda’s Western Province, near the shores of Lake Kivu, and processed at the Muhari Washing Station. The station has been under its current ownership for the past six years, with a strong focus on quality from the very beginning—starting with greenhouse nurseries and continuing through careful cultivation and processing.
The operations manager is named Twayigize, who oversees organization, quality control, and efficiency at the washing station.
About This Coffee
This is a Peaberry lot, a natural anomaly where only one seed develops inside the coffee cherry instead of two. It’s uncommon (roughly 1 in 9 cherries), and when it happens, that single bean develops differently, often leading to a more concentrated and expressive cup.
We’ve brought you Peaberries before, and they tend to stand out. This one does too.
The coffee is a Bourbon varietal grown at elevations between 5,900 and 7,200 feet. The altitude slows development, contributing to the clarity, brightness, and overall structure in the cup.
What to Expect in Your Cup
This is a clean, structured coffee with a lighter body and layered complexity. You’ll find notes of Black Tea, Tangerine and Honey. The sweetness carries through the entire cup, balanced by a gentle citrus brightness and a smooth, composed finish.
It doesn’t overwhelm—it just keeps you coming back for another sip.
If you’ve enjoyed our Peaberries before, this is one you don’t skip.

The Farmers behind your premium cup
Warmikuna means “women” in Quechua, one of Peru’s oldest languages. This lot was produced by the Warmikuna Cooperative, a group of 55 women coffee producers committed to quality, sustainability, and leadership within their communities. Six farms are currently leading the way in profitable sustainability and regenerative farming practices. These farms serve as working models, where other producers can see technical training
and agronomic standards in action.
Coffee has been part of Peruvian culture since the 1700s, and today, these women are not just participating in that tradition—they are actively shaping its future.
about this coffee
This coffee was grown between 3,600 and 5,400 feet above sea level in Peru’s Junin region, where the Andes mountains meet the Amazon rainforest. This unique environment creates a diverse and fertile landscape ideal for coffee cultivation. The lot is composed of Caturra, Catimor, and Typica varietals and processed using the washed method, resulting in a clean, balanced cup that reflects both the terroir and the precision of the producers.
Junin is one of Peru’s most biodiverse regions, connecting multiple ecosystems and allowing cultural and natural richness to coexist. This is something that is clearly expressed in the cup.
The Coffee
This coffee is smooth, balanced, and quietly complex. It carries a medium body with a creamy mouthfeel and gentle, well-integrated acidity. In the cup, you may experience notes of apricot, dried dates, brown sugar, chamomile, and lime. The overall profile is warm and approachable, with just enough brightness to keep it lively without overwhelming the palate.
