Producer overview
The Kanzu washing station is located in the Nyamasheke district of the Western Province in Rwanda. Coffees from this station are grown at high altitudes ranging from 1800 to 2200 meters. The varietal landscape at Kanzu is centered primarily around Bourbon, alongside Mbirizi, SL34, and Red Bourbon cultivars. The processing portfolio is heavily weighted toward the washed method, with a small number of natural processed lots also appearing in the index. Across 14 total coffees recorded in the catalog, 13 are washed and one is natural. Eight different roasters feature lots from Kanzu, including Sey Coffee and Plowshares Coffee Roasters. The catalog entries span multiple harvest iterations and lots, such as Lot #26, Lot 35, Lot #21, and Lot #726 from Sey Coffee, as well as offerings packaged simply as Rwanda Kanzu from Plowshares Coffee Roasters. The catalog footprint reflects consistent sourcing by specialty roasters across multiple offerings, primarily highlighting washed Bourbon-based lots from the Western Province of Rwanda.
