It is very rare to be able to get a coffee that is traceable back to a single producer in Rwanda, so we feel extremely fortunate to be able to share this special lot from Laurence Mukakabera’s farm Kinyonzo-Gihura.
Single producer microlots like this one are difficult to access, especially from such a small producer (Laurence owns 480 trees). One of the reasons this lot separation is possible is that Laurence is a member of the Dukunde Kawa Cooperative, who operate their own dry mill, where they can process smaller lots individually, whilst minimising cost and maintaining excellent quality standards.
Today, Laurence owns 480 coffee trees and has gone to become a leader within Rambagirakawa. At her farm, she also keeps a cow she received from Dukunde Kawa and a pig she bought with the income generated through coffee. Along with coffee, Laurence grows sustenance crops like beans, cassava, potatoes and corn, which help keep her farm’s soil healthy and free of erosion. When we asked Laurence what it meant to her to be a part of Dukunde Kawa, she told us that “the cooperative has become a solace and bread provider to single mothers. We meet people, we learn and we grow together as a family.”
