What the Brand Says

Producer: Isano/Muraho Region: Lake Kivu Variety: Red Bourbon Process: Washed Altitude: 1300 - 1750 masl Harvested: 2025 CUPPING NOTES: Floral with notes of bergamot, honeysuckle, red apple, plums, grape and black tea. Creamy. The Isano is rooted in the fertile hillsides surrounding Lake Kivu, one of Africa’s Great Lakes, where volcanic soil and high elevations create ideal conditions for coffee cultivation. Here, hundreds of smallholder farmers nurture their coffee trees with care, contributing to a collective story of resilience and renewal. The name Isano means “five” in Kinyarwanda, chosen to honour the five washing stations that work together under Muraho Trading to produce this lot. It symbolises unity, collaboration, and the shared determination of communities that have faced hardship yet continue to rebuild and thrive. Every step of the process, from handpicking ripe cherries to careful washing and drying on raised African beds, reflects the deep knowledge and dedication passed down through generations. What makes Isano special is not only the landscape of Lake Kivu but also the spirit of the people who live and work there. For many families, coffee has become more than a crop - it is a pathway to education, stability, and opportunity. The Isano lot captures this collective effort, standing as a testament to Rwanda’s ability to transform challenges into strength and progress. Transparency. What we paid: -Coffee: 8.85€/Kg -Shipping: 0.10€/Kg -Packaging, labelling and sorting: 2€/bag Quantity bought: 2400 Kg
