#1 Rwanda is here…

Starting today we’re offering the first place winner of Rwanda’s inaugural Golden Cup competition. We’re also continuing with the 4th (Kanzu) and 14th place (Murera) coffees as the response from customers has been terrific. Here’s some info on the new coffee…

Muyongwe, Rwanda Golden Cup: 1st Place, roasted by Intelligentsia- their tasting notes:

From the first sip, this coffee will sweep you off your feet with its elegance and complexity. The first place winner of Rwanda’s first-ever Golden Cup competition is a beautiful orchestration of soft pear and jasmine notes with candied cherry and an acidity that gives not only an exquisite roundness but also a glimmering citrus quality to the cup. Its finish is sweet and clean with a touch of milk chocolate; a handsome bow on a striking package.

P.S.- the new brew bar menu has been uploaded.  La Tortuga, Honduras and the Quetzal Breakfast Blend have been taken off the menu, but we may have enough for a couple of cups so please ask the barista if interested.
