Rwanda: Organic Abakundakawa, Gakenke District

The Hingakawa Women’s Association is also a part of Abakundakawa. These women organized themselves into women empowerment organizations and are slowly helping Rwanda women’s emancipation and position in society climb. Hingakawa means “let us grow coffee” in Kinyarwanda. The women who are in the Abakundakawa cooperative are also the heads of their families. They carefully select and process coffee beans and fetch special premiums with extra incomes that support themselves and their families.

Cupping notes:Pineapple, lemon verbena, grapefruit, berry, and honey sweetness.
