Region: West Nyamasheke, Rwanda
Elevation: 1,350 masl
Variety: Red Bourbon
Process: Natural
Tasting Notes: Bergamot tea, cinnamon spice, vanilla, apricot
Producer: Smallholder farmers, Mwito Washing Station (Rwanda Trading Company)
Mwito is the most remote of Rwanda Trading Company's sixteen washing stations, perched in the hills above Lake Kivu in West Nyamasheke. Naturally processed Rwandan lots of this calibre are a rarity — ripe Red Bourbon cherries are given a short whole-cherry ferment, then shade-dried on raised beds for up to two weeks with regular turning for clarity and even moisture loss. The cup is creamy and confectionary-sweet, with bergamot tea, cinnamon spice, vanilla and apricot.
