Women's Crown - Rugori Experimental - Rwandan light roast coffee

Orange • Sweet apple • Hints of cherry • Yogurt

Women's Crown is a Rwandan light roast coffee: fruity, with orange and cherry. The coffee was produced and processed entirely by women, and it is the first coffee in our Kirjala Limited series.

Grown high up, at 1,600–2,100 metres above sea level, these coffees go through careful processing. The result is a nuanced, balanced flavour profile where you can find cherry, berries, yogurt, sweet apple, green tea, orange and herbal notes. A full body and a multi-layered, sweet acidity round it all off.

Celebrating the work of women farmers: Rugori experimental is an experimental micro-lot from Gasharu Coffee, produced and processed entirely by women.

Most of the work in coffee farming and processing is done by women, yet only a small share of the income from coffee goes to women, despite their contribution and responsibility on the farms.
