Rwanda Gaseke - Natural

A natural coffee from the Rusizi region with notes of cranberry, strawberry and milk chocolate. The berry and chocolate come through together, and in milk based drinks they combine into something close to a packet of Smarties. Medium acidity and a medium body make it a good fit for espresso based drinks, but it also brews well in an Aeropress or plunger, especially with a splash of milk to round out the chocolatiness.

The cherries are grown by 396 smallholder producers working with RWACOF and dried on raised beds at the Gaseke washing station, which sits high above the Nyakabuye Valley and gets strong sun exposure throughout the day.
