Huye Mountain

Summary

A filter coffee from the Huye District in Rwanda, produced by David Rubanzangabo. This Red Bourbon variety is processed using the Natural method with selective hand-picking, floatation screening, and controlled drying on raised beds over several weeks. Grown at 1600-2000m altitude, the coffee offers notes of white nectarine, cocoa nibs, and cranberry. It has a medium-high, juicy acidity with a fine-structured body and a slightly dry finish. The sweetness recalls raw cane sugar and ripe stone fruit. The roast is light and fully developed, emphasizing clarity and controlled fruit expression.
