“For me, working in coffee is an opportunity to fulfil my community responsibility. My parents did all they could to support the family and the community, sending all 9 children to school and helping to educate many children with the community. As Gasharu Coffee is the only coffee enterprise owned by a coffee farming family from our community that still lives in the community, I feel the responsibility to make a sustainable business, to help keep the community together and create a legacy that will be carried by many generations.”
About Muhororo CWS: Muhororo washing station of Gasharu coffee is located on the shores of Lake Kivu and a stone’s throw from Nyungwe National Park which is one of the largest montane and most preserved montane rainforests in Central Africa, home to huge biodiversity and an estimated 25% of Africa’s primates. This region’s elevation, soil, and climate are what coffee trees love best.
[Naturals at Muhororo were collected at altitudes ranging between 1650 and 2110 m]
Process: The natural processed coffees at Muhororo washing station were collected at altitudes ranging between 1650 and 2110 masl. When the coffee is received at the washing station it is first floated, followed by careful sorting at the pre-drying tables. The cherries are then dried on the raised African beds for 25-30 days. Once dried, the coffee is well kept and stored in good conditions before being hulled and sorted by well-trained women and then packed in GrainPro and Jute bags for export.
