Rwanda Mbilima coffee beans - Organic - SCA 85

This red Bourbon is produced by the Dukunde Kawa cooperative in the hills of northwest Rwanda. Mbilima is one of the cooperative's four washing stations.
The natural Mbilima coffee we present to you is a selection of the ripest and fruitiest coffees produced by the cooperative. The selected cherries are sun-dried with their skins on for 50 to 60 days, depending on the weather. During harvest, producers sort their coffee by flotation to remove the less dense beans. Then, the selected cherries are further sorted by density. All the lightest beans are removed from the selection and will contribute to the production of a lower-quality, fully washed coffee, which will be sold on the local market.
During the drying process, workers regularly turn the berries and continue to sort the cherries until the drying is even, keeping only the best of the best.
