Emmanuel Rusatira - Anaerobic Natural Lot 🇷🇼
Emmanuel Rusatira has in Rwanda been on a mission since 2016 to establish new washing stations across the coffee growing regions in the country. His vision was clear, he wanted to make the diverse characters of Rwandan coffee accessible. His company now operates now 12 washing stations and is reeling in some incredible coffees due to their care and attention!
Todays coffee is from his washing station; Karambi in the Nyamagabe district. Karambi has been there since 1983, but Emmanuel has expanded and upgraded it in 2016 to output the results he envisions.
This coffee is of the red bourbon variety. Local small holder farmers deliver their coffee and is sorted for ripeness. Then it was fermented in cherry in a closed environment, afterwards dried outdoors with an innovative technique called sleeping bag. The technique uses a material resembling a sleeping bag and switches between enclosing the cherries and opening up, giving the coffee waves of drying and waves of moister retention. This extends the fermentation process and breaks down more of the sugars in the coffee seed making it extremely fun for us to play around with when roasting🥳
We gratefully present their coffee with notes of tropical fruit mix as in mango, pineapple, red wine and chocolate. We enjoy brewing this coffee at longer ratios than usual, try it out!
