Introducing our latest offering: a naturally processed Red Bourbon coffee from the esteemed Gasharu Washing Station in Rwanda’s Nyamasheke District. Grown at elevations between 1,700 and 2,100 meters, this coffee reflects the rich terroir and meticulous craftsmanship of the Gasharu community.

Our Relationship with Gasharu Coffee

Since 2020, our journey with Gasharu Coffee has been one of shared values, quality, and dedication. It all began during the challenges of the pandemic, when we first connected with Valentin, the owner of Gasharu Coffee.

Through countless conversations and tastings, we discovered a mutual passion for producing and showcasing the finest coffee Rwanda has to offer.

In 2024, at the World of Coffee event in Copenhagen, our collaboration reached a milestone as we finalised a direct trade partnership, bringing Gasharu Coffee’s exceptional beans to Ireland.

This marked their first container shipment to our shores and our first container of specialty coffee from Rwanda. Each cup reflects the care, innovation, and authenticity that Gasharu is renowned for.

It’s an honour to share their Red Bourbon coffee, a product of their legacy and commitment, with you.
