Rwanda Nyungwe Honey Processed (Light Roast)

This honey processed coffee is comes from the Nyungwe region of Rwanda.  We've had Rwandan coffees a few times over the years but never a honey processed coffee.  A Rwandan coffee will be a good option for light roast curious folks along with African coffee fans for their mildly fruity, approachable yet still complex flavors and a lower acidity than other African options.

Coffee from Rwanda borrows some flavor notes from fruit-forward Ethiopian coffees.  This coffee has a raspberry, melon and milk chocolate taste with a touch of lemon notes.  This coffee happens to be a honey processed coffee which will add a layer of sweetness and complexity and tone down the acidity a bit too.

On balance, this coffee has a balanced set of flavors with a round finish that is both complex but easy to drink.

WHERE THIS COFFEE WORKS

If you're curious to try an African coffee with depth but without the sharp notes many will have, this would be a good opportunity to try this flavor profile.  Since we'll have this throughout the 2025 holiday season, consider this coffee for a friend or family member to introduce them to the world of light roast, artisan coffee with a gentle African profile.
