Coproca - Rwanda

‘This is a great example of well prepared natural Rwandan Red Bourbon. Which somehow manages to be clean and funky at the same time. Delicious.’

In the cup, you can expect flavour notes reminiscent of red wine. Heavy, stewed fruits sit alongside gentle lime acidity and a strawberry sweetness. Just a hint of black tea on the finish helps round out the coffee perfectly. This is sophisticated coffee that suits all brew methods.

This Red Bourbon from Rwandan cooperative Coproca offers a distinctive expression of the producer's natural-processed beans. Natural processing—where the method leaves the fruit intact during drying—typically emphasizes heavier fruit characteristics and deeper sweetness. Foundry Coffee Roasters identifies red wine and stewed fruit notes alongside brighter lime acidity and strawberry sweetness, creating a layered profile bridged by black tea undertones. The combination suggests complexity born from both varietal character and fermentation-forward processing, inviting exploration across the coffee's tasting spectrum.
