ABOUT THE COFFEE

Located in the Rutsiro District, in the western part of Rwanda, the Bugoyi washing station sits at an altitude of 1,550 meters above sea level. It is about 192 km away from Kigali, and coffee cherries from surrounding farms located at 1,500–1,900 meters are processed on site. The high altitude, volcanic mineral-rich soils, and around 1,356 mm of rainfall per year create excellent conditions for growing coffee.

In 2026, Baho Coffee continues to make great use of the station's unique location by Lake Kivu. The delicate breeze from the lake and the gentle sun allow the coffee to dry slowly and evenly, resulting in a very clean, full, and intense flavor in the cup. This coffee is famous for its distinct, fresh acidity and complex fruity character. Black Honey is a processing method that enhances the fruity character of the bean. It consists of removing the seed from the cherry, but without cleaning the pulp off of it. We allow it to ferment and interact with the seed - which is our future coffee. This process very often results in a fruit bomb.

Besides great coffee, Bugoyi is also a place that attracts visitors with amazing views of the lake.

Store in a cool and dry place.
