Rwanda Coffee
The Roast of the Month at Caffenation is a washed Rwanda Arabica. I have no more information about it, but i do know it's a real top class espresso bean. Very good body, strong, little earthy, vibrant, low acidity and a mellow clean after taste. Best described as an improved Indonesian. Great to drink as a single and probably also brilliant in the blend, although we still rate our latest Papua New Guinea a tad higher thanks to its dark fruit tones.
Meanwhile I'm Cupping and Brewing Square Mile's Rwanda. A review soon.
And for all Rwanda lover's I have this very interesting 'Independent' article underneath this link.
It looks like Rwanda is the newest and hottest bean in 3rd wave land. And for good reason!
(oh yes ; don't you think this Rwanda flag is one of the most beautiful?)
