PRODUCER

Kirambo washing station is near Lake Kivu and works with smallholder farmers who cultivate plots smaller than one hectare. Originally built in 2008, the station faced financial difficulties and was unable to operate consistently. In 2017, RTC acquired the station and has been managing it since the 2018 season, focusing on sustainability and farmer education. As a result, Kirambo now produces high-quality coffee.

PROCESSING

At Kirambo, coffee cherries are first sorted to remove defective ones. They are then dried on raised African beds in a layer approximately 2 cm thick for up to 30 days. The cherries are turned every hour and covered at night to maintain optimal quality during drying.

VARIETY

Red Bourbon is a variation of the Bourbon variety, one of the oldest and most renowned Arabica cultivars. It was named after Bourbon Island (now Réunion), from where it spread to Latin America and Africa in the 19th century.

Red Bourbon is cultivated in Rwanda for its high sweetness, delicate acidity, and complex flavor profile. It typically features notes of citrus, caramel, and red fruit.
