Source Climate Change Coffee Organic Rwanda Gishwati Coffee 227g - 4 Pack

Experience the rich, bold flavors of our Organic Rwanda Gishwati Coffee, a dark roast distinguished by lively citrus highlights and a smooth caramel sweetness. This exquisite coffee is cultivated in the Gishwati Cloud Forest region, located just 60 kilometers from the Virunga Park”an ecological hotspot renowned for its rare mountain gorillas and the elusive zebra-patterned Okapi. The Gishwati Forest once thrived with diverse primate species, including chimpanzees and golden monkeys. Unfortunately, during the tragic genocide, displaced communities cleared large portions of the forest for subsistence farming, resulting in severe deforestation. By 2001, only 6 kilometers of native forest remained. Our coffee supports the restoration and preservation of this vital ecosystem by rewarding 700 organic farmers who practice sustainable land management. While this project is not yet carbon registered, Source Climate Change Coffee actively offsets the carbon footprint of Rwandan coffee production by balancing it with carbon credits from our Ugandan farmers. This initiative reflects our commitment to environmental stewardship and community support, ensuring that every cup contributes to a healthier planet and a sustainable future.
