Story

Triangle Accent

This exceptional microlot was sourced exclusively from women-owned farms within the Abadatezuka Cooperative in Rwanda’s Western Province. Each producer received a quality-focused premium in recognition of their exceptional coffee.

Honey processed and grown near the Nyungwe Forest, this coffee benefits from fertile soils, cool Lake Kivu breezes, and native honeybee pollination all contributing to its distinctly elegant Rwandan character. In the cup, expect a velvety, wine-like profile with notes of lime zest, apricot rose jam, raspberry, and cinnamon graham cracker. A vibrant, fruit-forward coffee with a distinctly Kenyan-like flair.

Story:

Unparalleled quality, a human story, and sustainability – that’s our coffee philosophy.

Unparalleled quality. We won’t buy a coffee unless we know that it will inspire you.

A human story. Often times a producer’s story gets lost in the coffee supply chain. It’s our focus to provide a seed-to-cup experience, honoring everyone involved

Sustainability. We purchase coffees directly from producers and through brokers who share our goal of making coffee a sustainable commodity. Financially and environmentally, the coffees we purchase seek balance. Premiums paid for quality far exceed fair trade premiums and afford a more sustainable, honest model.

Combine our coffee philosophy and passion for exceptional coffees with our down-home Midwest hospitality and that, in a nutshell, is JBC Coffee Roasters. We can’t wait to share our coffee passion with you.
