Rwanda Kanzu

Summary

Rwanda Kanzu comes from the Nyamasheke region in Western Rwanda, produced by smallholder farmers supplying the Kanzu washing station. Grown at 1,800-2,100 masl, this coffee is washed, with a dry fermentation of 16-18 hours followed by an 18-hour soak, then dried on raised beds. The cup presents lively, refined acidity reminiscent of grapefruit, layered with the delicate sweetness of wildflower honey and dried apricot, supported by tea-like qualities similar to lightly roasted oolong, with a round body and a finish of gentle spice and soft nuttiness.
