Your Destination for the Perfect Cup

Washing Stations

Gishamwana Island

Gishamwana Island

All of our washing stations produce Fully washed coffee except for Gishamwana Island which also does Anaerobic Natural Process but only per demand.


Fresh coffee cherries are harvested and brought to the washing stations.


The cherries undergo pulping to remove the outer skin, leaving the mucilage-covered beans, now called parchment coffee.


Fermentation and washing processes are applied to remove the mucilage, followed by drying to achieve the desired moisture content.

Gishamwana Island produces Fully washed and Anaerobic coffee.


Here's our  Anaerobic process:


 Coffee cherries are processed anaerobically (without oxygen).


Cherries are placed in sealed tanks to ferment, enhancing flavor complexity.


After fermentation, cherries are dried with the fruit still intact, creating natural processed coffee.

Dry Milling

Hand Sorting Green Coffee

 The dried parchment coffee is transported to the dry mill in Rubavu, Gisenyi.


At the dry mill, the parchment layer is removed, converting the coffee into green coffee beans.


The dry mill operates with two units to handle large quantities efficiently.
