Rwandan Light

This light roast comes from the Hinga Kawa co-op, a remarkable collective of nearly 1,000 women in Rwanda who joined Café Femenino in the wake of the 1994 genocide. Expect bright, citrus-forward notes—clementine, maple syrup, and dates—layered with jasmine and lemongrass aromatics. Clean, crisp, and vibrant, it’s a cup that uplifts in every sense.

Right now, we offering ONLY WHOLE BEANS. But our ground coffee option is on the way!
