This year marks the first special process coffee from Kilimbi CWS: an anaerobic natural with all the characteristics loved in Rwandan coffee, dialled up to 11. In the cup: black cherry and apricot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PRODUCER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKilimbi CWS is operated by the Muraho Trading Company. For a long time, natural processing was rare in Rwanda, but coffees like this have helped cement Rwandan natural and anaerobic lots among the tastiest coming out of East Africa.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PROCESS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCherries are harvested and sorted for only the ripest, then fermented in an environment free of oxygen. This promotes certain bacteria during fermentation and enhances the intensity of the coffee's sweetness and fruity flavour profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe oxygen-free anaerobic fermentation is the defining step — it's what builds the juicy, slightly tart black cherry intensity, complemented by a sweet apricot stonefruit character, giving this Rwandan Bourbon a unique rendition unlike previous washed or natural lots from the station.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE CUP\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLoudly and proudly East African — black cherry presents juicy, sweet, and slightly tart, complemented by a sweet apricot stonefruit character. The coffee's layered sweetness is contrasted by a juicy acidity, balancing the profile for a taste experience unlike any previous Rwandan lot on the menu.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlavour Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e🍒 Black Cherry 🍑 Apricot\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bluebird Coffee","offers":[{"title":"Omni \/ 250g \/ September 7th","offer_id":58793943990646,"sku":"BB-KILIMBI-RED-BOURBON-NATURAL-250G-SEP07","price":19.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0529\/9152\/5021\/files\/Kilimbi_An_Nat-cropped.png?v=1790080881","url":"https:\/\/sigmacoffee.co.uk\/products\/bluebird-coffee-kilimbi-anaerobic-natural-red-bourbon-rwanda","provider":"Sigma Coffee UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
