    This coffee comes from the Huye region in Rwanda, Africa, where the bourbon coffee trees grow at 1850m above sea level. An unusual, natural bourbon from Rwanda, the espresso is wonderfully sweet, reminding us of fudgy toffee, sweet blueberry jam and dried fig.

    About the farm

    We at 19grams have known the Simbi Washing Station for many years: The Simbi Washing Station was founded in 2013 by Abdul Rudahunga. It enables farmers in the vicinity of the Huye region to process their coffee. Almost 1500 micro-farms deliver their coffee to the Simbi Station, which employs around 80 people during the main harvest season. There is room for 300 tonnes of coffee cherries, which are processed using different methods. From fully-washed beans to sun-dried natural coffee cherries, everything is possible.

    Through its experimental and at the same time careful processing, Simbi Station produces excellent quality.

    Simbi coffees have been nominated for the Cup of Excellence several times.

    Bloody Good Espresso

    Coffee is a fruit which is naturally acidic and contains many sugars. We roast our espresso to develop a fine acidity and to bring out its natural sweetness.

    Our espresso roasts aim to present the strong flavour profiles of different origins. Discover our single origin espressos – all 100% arabica coffees, carefully selected and gently roasted by our team in Berlin.
