| Producer Information Liza washing station is a larger co-operative of 500 members, the majority of which are small holder farmers, who deliver coffee cherries daily during harvesting season to be processed using the traditional Rwandan washed method. The coffee is pulped and sealed in bags so no oxygen can get in, then fermented for 48 hours, which breaks down any fruit flesh still clinging to the beans. After this the beans are washed and left to dry in the shade for 24 hours, during which time it is sorted through again multiple times to make sure all defects have been removed. The Liza washing station is owned by a man named Jean Paul, who also owns a plantation of several thousand coffee trees. He works in tandem with the hundreds of local farmers that harvest and deliver to his station and has his own cupping lab at home, which he uses for quality control measures, assuring that his coffee continues to produce high scores across the board. |

Roasted Day
Our coffee is roasted to order mostly. That means we wait until we receive your order before we fire up the roaster.
Some beans will degassing before despatch but we promise our coffee is roasted no longer than 14 days ago.
Drinking Experience
Drinking Experience
We encourage you to start drinking when you receiving the beans, so that you can experience the changes from undegas coffee beans to fully degassed ones.
But we recommended to start brewing between 14-31 days after roasted day.
Flavor and the aroma would degrade significantly with time because of a chemical reaction with oxygen, oxidation makes coffee beans go stale and overall unpleasant. So we recommend finished the coffee beans better in 2 months after the roasted day.
