About
Nyamyumba sits in the hills above Lake Kivu in western Rwanda, where the Congo Nile Trail winds through volcanic soil and the edge of Gishwati National Forest. Local smallholders pick only ripe Bourbon cherry by hand. At the washing station it is sorted twice, then dried in the sun on raised beds and turned by hand, until it’s ready to roast.
