Meet Cyahinda Espresso, it’s bright and punchy and sourced from the hills of Nyamasheke in western Rwanda. The family-led community behind Cyahinda takes coffee very seriously. Their attention to detail at all stages of production is second to none. The hard work has well and truly paid off with this smooth sweet espresso.

Rwandan coffees are renowned for being bright, balanced and clean, and this espresso is exactly that. The farm responsible for this espresso puts quality above everything, favouring selective hand-picking over using machinery, so only the perfectly ripe cherries are picked for processing. To ensure the highest standards are met, the farmers conduct regular sensory cupping sessions throughout the harvest to check quality. They have also boosted soil nutrients by implementing organic composting with coffee pulp.

Having inherited the farm from their parents, the current owners grew up on the farm, helping out during harvest. The family grow their coffee alongside tall banana trees, which slows down their growth and reduces stress on the crops. Another perk to shade growing is it provides a home to plenty of local biodiversity.
