Rwanda Karongi (Sep-Oct 2023)

AVAILABLE ONLINE AND IN STORE

Known as the 'land of a thousand hills', Rwanda definitely has the right altitude and weather to grow fantastic coffee. It is grown all around the country, without any specific geographic zones of constrictions (as some countries do). Each producer only has a small number of trees (<200), and most bring their coffee to a washing station for further processing. This leads to much difficulties in finding a lot that is traceable to a single producer. Nonetheless, because of the growing conditions, coffee from Rwanda tend to be excellent between seasons.

Our coffee this month comes from the western region of the country, along the shores of Lave Kivu, and is from three different washing stations (Birembo, Muhehwe, and Cotecega).

In this cup, we find notes of bright citrus fruits, along with berries, in a sweet, tea-like cup that has a lasting aftertaste.

As our #dYScover beans are roasted specially, and separately from the rest of our offerings, we only have limited quantities per month! If you have ever thought or wondered about specialty coffee from Rwanda, do make sure you give this a try soon!

There are so many different types of coffee grown in various regions of the world, with each region tasting very distinct from one another. 

#dYScover, by Yong Seng Coffee, is our attempt at letting you experience high quality/specialty coffee from the various coffee-producing regions of the world. Read more about specialty coffee here!

Join us on this journey as we bring in coffee from different regions every month, as we explore the world of coffee together.
