Mwito
The Mwito Washing Station sits on the shores of Lake Kivu in West Nyamasheke. Mwito washing station was constructed in 2008, but for many years there was no stability due to a lack of financing. For all those years, farmers lacked a consistent partner who would support them beyond buying coffee cherries. RTC purchased Mwito in 2017 and operated it for the first time in the 2018 season. One year after, all farmers had been registered to enroll in RTC’s farmer impact programs for extension services and preparation for certification. In 2019 RTC built a kindergarten school for the coffee farmers’ children.
We taste lots of bittersweet cocoa and juicy, deep black cherry. A very well-rounded coffee with enough approachability for most drinkers.
All coffee will be shipped in 1-2 business days from order and will have a roast date no older than one week from ship date.
If you buy a bag of Highfalutin Coffee and are unsatisfied, shoot us an email and we'll buy you a bag of coffee of equal or lesser value from your favorite roaster. Yes, we're serious.
