18.5 EUR

Bright, juicy, and unexpectedly refined, this natural processed Rwandan coffee from Bean Bros redefines what you expect from East African profiles. Sourced from the high-altitude hills of Nyamagabe, this Red Bourbon lot delivers an expressive cup layered with wild strawberry sweetness, ripe cherry intensity, and a smooth vanilla finish. The extended natural fermentation and slow drying on raised beds unlock a depth of flavor that evolves beautifully from hot to cold—revealing new nuances with every sip. Whether brewed as filter or pulled as espresso, this coffee balances vibrant acidity with a clean, structured clarity rarely found in natural processes. It’s a modern take on Rwandan coffee—complex, playful, and deeply satisfying. Grown near Nyungwe Forest in nutrient-rich volcanic soil, and carefully processed at the renowned Gitega Hills washing station, this is a coffee that reflects both innovation and origin in every cup.
