Uganda has quickly become a staple here at Rinaldo’s; we just love this fabulous natural-processed offering from the Nyabirongo Washing Station, high in the foothills of the Rwenzori National Park.

We are directly sourcing this coffee from the family team at Rwenzori Coffee Co, Martin, Beth and Jonny, who all work with the social enterprise Agri Evolve in Uganda - you can find more information in the video above. Nyabirongo is in fact a brand new washing station, completely funded and run by Agri Evolve as part of their ongoing commitment to the Rwenzori region of Uganda.

Nyabirongo is a perfect for stove top brew or espresso showcasing notes of honey, chocolate and caramel. It's balanced and clean, with incredible sweet notes. You'll adore this sumptuous coffee.

Nyabirongo is the name of Agri Evolve’s new Coffee Station in the foothills of the Rwenzori Mountains in the far west of Uganda. It is the new HQ and the centre of operations. From here a team of 20 Field Officers travel throughout the region, meeting with groups of farmers to provide training and support. High standards are set, paying top prices for coffee that has been picked at the optimum time – when the ‘cherries’ are red ripe. Green un-ripe coffee is not purchased. Starting with the very best, processing ensures that the inherent excellent quality of the coffee is maintained at all times. The coffee is dried on raised beds, turned frequently, and closely monitored and assessed by our Quality Team. When perfectly dried the coffee is hulled and graded and bagged before exporting directly to the UK and around the world.
