On the slopes of Rwanda’s Nyamasheke region lies the Gitwe station. It is a place where coffee is not just a crop – it is a shared effort, pride, and tradition. More than 90% of the team here are women. Every cherry goes through careful sorting, fermentation, and drying on African beds to highlight its clarity and complexity. At Father’s, we treat this coffee with the same care and respect.
PRODUCER
The Gitwe station, located in the Nyamasheke district, lies in a high-altitude area with rich volcanic soil near Lake Kivu. This unique environment creates ideal conditions for growing specialty coffee, considered among the best in all of Rwanda.
The Gitwe station is made up mostly of women, who represent 90% of the team. Only specialty coffee is processed here. RTC operates 15 collection points that make it easier to transport cherries, especially for elderly farmers in the area.
PROCESSING
At the Gitwe station, fresh cherries are first hand-sorted and then depulped. They are then fermented in tanks for 8 to 12 hours, a process that ensures clarity and complexity of flavor. After fermentation, the beans are washed and dried on raised beds for 10 to 15 days, being turned regularly to ensure even drying.
VARIETY
Red Bourbon, a variety with a rich history dating back to Bourbon Island (present-day Réunion), is prized for its exceptional cup quality. Its cherries have a deep red color and are known for their delicate and refined flavor notes.
We work with several couriers worldwide, the table HERE specify the conditions for each country.

Why Inza Matters
Inza isn’t just another coffee – it’s a story of resilience and connection. This year, our “dad” Petr traveled there, and even though local unrest nearly kept him from reaching the region, he eventually met the people behind this coffee.
High in the mountains of Cauca, smallholder farmers grow coffee on steep slopes, most of the work done by hand. Their dedication to quality shines through in every cup. For us, Inza is a reminder of their commitment and the strong community that makes Colombian coffee so special. 🤎

Why Uganda Matters
Zebigi isn’t just another specialty coffee. It’s part of a bigger story that we’ve poured a piece of ourselves into. A year ago, we had the chance to be right there in Uganda – to meet the farmers who grow the coffee, to see the process from harvest to drying. And that’s when we realized we wanted to do even more.
Together with The Coffee Gardens, we co-financed the opening of a QC Lab in Uganda. This quality control laboratory enables farmers to evaluate their harvest directly on site, refine their practices, and, as a result, achieve fairer prices.
Every cup of Zebigi is not only about flavor, but also about the future. About giving farmers the tools and knowledge that open doors to better conditions and stability. And that’s exactly why we love returning to Uganda.🤎
