Rwandan Golden Cup Lots are here!

We have a couple of exciting new coffees to offer this week from Rwanda’s first ever Golden Cup competition. We will start off with the 4th and 14th place coffees, and in the near future we’ll feature the 1st place winner. We only purchased a few half pound bags so supplies will be limited.

Here’s the lowdown on the latest offerings:

Kanzu, Rwanda Golden Cup: 4th Place -
One cannot drink this coffee without appreciating its depth. From aroma to taste, you will be welcomed by layers of chocolate ranging from light to dark, baker’s to milk. Intertwining the full silky body are flavors of blackberries, dried fruit and caramel. You will find that the finish lingers smoothly and delectably with a predominant flavor of cocoa.

Murera, Rwanda Golden Cup: 14th Place -
Don’t let this coffee’s double digit placement in Rwanda’s Golden Cup competition dissuade you from experiencing all it has to offer. The spirited citrus acidity, reminiscent of lemonade and tangerines, provides a medium for fresh raspberries and honey dew melon to come through. The body sparkles into a clean, glossy finish leaving your palate refreshed and invigorated.
