When it came time to select something delicious from Rwanda for this year’s single-origin offerings, we were pleasantly surprised when the coffee selected as the sweetest, cleanest, most delicious coffee on the cupping table also supported a local tree rejuvenation initiative by RwaCof. For us, the Mushonyi Washing Station coffee was an easy choice—it’s the most delicious coffee that also benefits the producers, making it a win-win.

Coffee was introduced to Rwanda by German missionaries in the early 1900s, but large-scale production didn’t start until the 1930s and 1940s under Belgian rule. The Belgians made coffee cultivation mandatory for native Rwandans, resulting in low-quality coffee for export, with most profits leaving the country. After gaining independence in 1962, coffee remained important to Rwanda’s economy, becoming the largest export by 1970. Despite the 1994 genocide causing a collapse in coffee exports, Rwanda’s coffee industry has since recovered, partly due to government support and the establishment of over 300 Central Washing Stations (CWSs) to improve coffee quality.

These washing stations, inspired by the Kenya/Ethiopia model, have significantly increased the export value of Rwandan coffee. In cases where direct buying isn’t possible, trusted local organizations help export coffee, ensuring investment back into the community.

Transparency

2018 marked a statement of intent for us, to ensure that people growing exceptional coffee are still doing so in decades to come. 

We started publishing the price we pay to producers exposing the traceability they deserve and discerning drinkers' demand as the new norm. We refer to the most direct payment as ‘Farmgate’.

We’re proud we can publish this for our single origins and house blends.

Seven Seeds has been involved with the Speciality Coffee Transaction Guide as data donors for the past five years. We have signed 'The Pledge', a commitment to transparency in coffee trading.

Roasting and Shipping

We roast our coffee from Monday to Friday, but not every type each day. We aim to ship orders within 1-2 business days.

Roasted coffee reaches it's peak 5-14 days after roasting and stays fresh for up to 30 days. We may send coffee roasted a few days earlier.

The Roastery and Head Office are closed on weekends and public holidays; we do not roast or ship these days.

Thanks for understanding and happy brewing!
