Hinga Kawa

A Fruity & Multilayered Rwandan Coffee From The Gakenke Region

This exceptional washed reserve series coffee comes to us from the Hinga Kawa Cooperative in Rwanda’s Gakenke District. This year, Amavida was able to bring in three different processing methods from the same producer group (Washed, Honey and Natural). This fully washed, fair trade/ organic certified lot is bursting with notes of raisin, baking spices and red fruit. It is a beautiful representation of the distinct flavor profile we associate with Central African coffees. 

Founded in 2004, the Hinga Kawa Cooperative has always strived to consistently improve their quality. Growing almost exclusively Red Bourbon variety of coffee trees, the group consists of 2017 members (916 women) with farms at elevations ranging from 1700-2100 meters. The cooperative owns two washing stations, where farmers can bring their harvested coffee cherries for processing.

The Bottom Line

This fully washed Rwanda from the Hinga Kawa cooperative is a vibrant and exciting addition to our reserve series line up. We are tasting notes of raisin, baking spices and red fruit in what may be your new favorite coffee this spring, 

Thanks to our friends at Cooperative Coffees for helping us highlight the producers of this limited release coffee at Hinga Kawa Cooperative in Rwanda.
