Rwanda Rugori by Drip Roasters is a vibrant specialty coffee produced by Gasharu Coffee in Rwanda's Western Province. Cultivated at altitudes between 1,600 and 2,100 meters above sea level in the Macuba Sector of Nyamasheke District, this 100% Red Bourbon lot reflects the dedicated craftsmanship of the women of Gasharu CWS, who exclusively harvest and process the crop.
In the cup, this coffee is remarkably sweet and juicy, offering a layered profile led by distinct black currant, ripe plum, and red grape notes. A washed extended fermentation, featuring an initial tank fermentation and a secondary anaerobic phase before 16 to 20 days of drying on raised beds, provides an intense aroma, juicy brightness, and clarity suited for both espresso and filter brewing.

Rwanda Rugori was produced and processed exclusively by women. With over 70% of Gasharu's employees being women, the company named this coffee Rugori to honor their invaluable contributions to the coffee community. Urugori translates to women's crown, a crown that women in Rwanda are given after giving birth to their first child as a symbol of motherhood, respect, and recognition of their contribution to society.
Gasharu Coffee was created in 2014 by Valentin Kimenyi and his parents, Celestin and Marie. Operating from the Gasharu Central Washing Station on the shores of Lake Kivu, a stone's throw from Nyungwe Forest National Park, Gasharu places great importance on providing women with proper jobs and fair wages in the Macuba Sector of Nyamasheke District.
After harvest, coffee cherries are floated to remove defects and then pulped. The coffee is fermented in tanks for 12 to 14 hours before being rinsed in water channels and graded by density. The densest beans undergo a secondary 8-hour anaerobic fermentation in tanks, followed by sorting on pre-drying tables and drying on raised beds for 16 to 20 days.
