Producer overview
Muraho Trading Company operates across Rwanda, sourcing coffee from the Lake Kivu, Nyabihu, and Nyamasheke regions. Their production spans an altitude range of 1450 to 2300 meters above sea level.
The producer focuses primarily on the Bourbon varietal. Within their catalog, Red Bourbon is the most frequently represented cultivar, appearing in six of their listed lots, while standard Bourbon accounts for two.
Their process portfolio demonstrates significant diversity. While washed processing is represented, the producer also utilizes natural, honey, and various experimental techniques. These include anaerobic natural and anoxic natural treatments, indicating a broad approach to post-harvest processing.
The current index includes eight lots from Muraho Trading Company, all of which are currently in stock. These coffees are featured by two different roasters.
Recent catalog examples include the Shyira and Shyira-Meraki lots, both washed Red Bourbon processed by Manhattan Coffee Roasters. Additionally, Five Senses Coffee carries the Bumbogo natural Bourbon, the Kilimbi honey Bourbon, the Kilimbi experimental anaerobic natural Red Bourbon, and the Rugali anoxic natural Red Bourbon.
The work of Muraho Trading Company is defined by its wide range of processing methods applied to the Bourbon varietal across multiple Rwandan regions.
