  • About Bwishaza Anaerobic Honey | Rwanda

    Our coffees from Rwanda are directly traded with producers and we are able to offer full transparency and detailed information on these coffees. For more information on how we source coffees take a look at our Transparency Report.

    This is a unique two stage anaerobic fermentation honey produced specifically for us using the following method:

    1) Start with perfectly ripe cherry
    2) Float to remove defects
    3) Place in sealed bags for 48 hours in shade storage
    4) Pulp the coffee leaving as much mucilage on as possible
    5) Place the pulped coffee in sealed bags for 48 hours in shade storage
    6) Sun dried in a thin layer for the first week and after this time a thicker layer to slow down the drying process.

    This has resulted in fantastic honey processed coffee with tasting notes that pineapple, tamarind and grapefruit.

    £1 from the sale over every bag will be donated to the Bwishaza goat project.

Processing Method

Anaerobic Honey

The anaerobic honey process pairs oxygen-free fermentation with the honey method. The anaerobic stage adds a layer of aromatic depth and complexity, while the remaining fruit sugars contribute a thick, jammy body and structured sweetness with additional fruit character.

Coffee Varietal

Bourbon

One of the oldest and most influential arabica varietals, Bourbon traces its origins to the island of Réunion (formerly Bourbon), where it was cultivated from Yemen's Typica stock. It's prized for its complex sweetness, often yielding notes of caramel, fruit, and chocolate. Bourbon tends to be delicate and susceptible to disease, but its cup quality is considered exceptional, and it forms the genetic backbone of many modern varietals.
