Rwanda Specialty 100% Arabica - Fresh Coffee Beans
This coffee comes from coffee processing plant Simbi, in Huye district in Rwanda's southern province.
Simbi is a coffee processing plant run by Abdul, who was inspired to get into the coffee business by his grandmother. She was also a coffee farmer and one of the few rural Rwandans who roasted and drank her own coffee as part of her daily routine. The washhouse was built in 2011 and 2012.
It officially started work in 2013 with 85 people, 80 per cent of whom were women. That same year, they participated in the Rwanda Cup of Excellence for the first time and came 9th out of 159 samples submitted.
The coffee was roasted by us at a fairly low temperature but colours dark a bit earlier than most coffees so it still shows medium. You taste chocolate and stone fruit with a slightly fruity finish.
For those in the know: SCA score of 84.25.
Café du jour Coffee Beans
Café du Jour's own-brand coffee beans are roasted on a small scale by a specialist roaster. The beans are roasted and stocked weekly, so the roasting date is always recent. The roast date is therefore noted on the packaging label.
Resealable coffee packaging
Whether you buy 250g, 500g or a kilo Café du Jour coffee beans: they always come in a special resealable packaging. The coffee bag has a special resealable rim so you can always re-pack the coffee airtight. On the front of each bag is a valve, this allows gases and air to escape from the bag without allowing air from outside to flow back into the bag. This way, we do everything we can to preserve the optimal freshness of your coffee!
