The first fresh harvest from Rwanda this season has arrived. This coffee was processed at Kirambo Washing Station in the Nyamasheke District, West Province, near the shores of Lake Kivu. Produced from Red Bourbon, this lot is process-driven and clean, with a winey brightness and rhubarb-like acidity. The cup is dense and structured with tasting notes of tropical fruits, rhubarb and milk chocolate.

The Kirambo harvest generally runs from April to June, with shipments taking place between July and October. Due to its proximity to Lake Kivu, Kirambo’s climate is cool and stable, making it ideal for coffee production. This facilitates controlling fermentation. The farms delivering cherry to Kirambo are mostly small, family-run plots. Farmers handpick their cherries and often grow additional crops for household consumption. Many maintain only a few hundred trees, making coffee an important but seasonal income. These coffees are processed as fully washed. A disk pulper removes the cherry skin and pulp before the coffee undergoes dry fermentation. After this stage, the coffee is washed and graded. It is then dried on raised beds for 15–22 days.

MEET THE ROASTER

Dak Coffee Roasters

Dak Coffee Roasters was founded by Louis-Philippe Boucher & Veronique Lagarde in 2019. Originally from Montreal, Canada, the duo roamed around Europe for more than 8 years before settling in Amsterdam where they founded the roastery. Dak means “roof” in Danish, and it was a moment in 2019 when Louis-Philippe was sitting on the roof of his home, drinking coffee when he decided to start his own roastery. Dak now consists of a small team of six.

Coffee has always been part of our lives, although our love for specialty coffee has grown exponentially in the past few years. After working many years respectively in Finance & Marketing, we decided to pursue our dream, opening a coffee roastery. Dak was born from true passion for coffee and the desire to embark on a journey of endless discoveries.

We select our coffees based on their unique tasting profiles and of course that are 100% fully traceable. We partner with importers that share our values and we roast each one of our coffees carefully to bring the best flavours they have to offer.
—Louis-Philippe & Veronique
