Phoenix Coffee

siri play when doves cry

🚨🚨🚨 New coffee alert! 🚨🚨🚨

For the past few years, Phoenix has been buying coffee from Rwanda's Akagera station. This year, in addition to the Kobakanya separation (more on that in a week or two!), we'd like to welcome the Ikizere project to our coffee program! Ikizere is a group of over 100 single mothers and widows spread across Rwanda's coffee growing regions and represented by eight women in this particular lot from Akagera. Meaning "confidence" in Kinyarwanda, Ikizere is both a traceable coffee initiative and a social support organization, providing it's members with financial and agricultural education, access to short-term loans, clean water infrastructure, health insurance, and a centralized communication and meeting platform for the organization’s women to discuss needs both within and beyond the coffee.

This coffee features all the vibrant fruit-forward flavors one would expect of a dry processed African coffee. Sweet berries turn to tropical kiwi, and a long, full bodied cacao finish rounds out the cup. We look forward to sharing Ikizere with you!
