Filter or espresso? We couldn't decide which roast tastes better to us - so now you're spoiled for choice!

Over 1,600 small farmers - each of whom cultivates between 100 and 7,000 coffee trees - deliver their cherries to the Bwenda Washing Station, which was founded in 2019 by the Rwanda Trading Company and is located in the middle of the "Land of a Thousand Hills".

Three full-time employees, including manager Eric, and up to 60 harvest workers ensure that the coffee is collected at over 20 points within a radius of just a few kilometers and processed at the washing station. In addition, the RTC offers local farmers specially tailored agribusiness training to ensure the long-term economic success of small-scale producers.
