We suggest using this coffee for espresso brew methods, but it's also great in a French Press, stovetop or plunger: whatever you use to keep yourself caffeinated and having a good time.

Growth Story 

This 100% Red Bourbon lot was produced at Remera washing station, using cherries grown by independent smallholder producers who farm coffee in the region’s high hills. Established in 2007, Remera is located in the Kigoma Sector of Huye District, in Rwanda’s rugged Southern Province, and is the largest of partner Buf Coffee’s washing stations.

Typically, farms in the area surrounding Remera are very small – averaging around a quarter of a hectare (or 300-600 trees) – and are situated between 1,750 to 2,100 meters above sea level. The high elevation of the surrounding area allows coffee cherry to ripen slowly, resulting in a complex and sweet flavour profile.
