Collaboration

This coffee is the result of a beautiful partnership between Justin Musabyimana, the visionary behind the Mahembe washing station, and Keen Coffee. Justin grew up on this very farm in Rwanda’s Western Province, and today he’s a leader in the community, paying farmers above-market rates—a value we hold dear at Keen.

The magic lies in the variety: a hybrid of the legendary Geisha and the local Mibirizi. Grown in rich volcanic soil, the cherries are hand-picked at peak ripeness before undergoing a precise anaerobic fermentation. This meticulous care ensures a clean, structured cup that respects the land it came from. At Keen, we love how this project balances innovation with social responsibility, proving that experimenting with new varieties can lead to world-class flavours. Whether you brew it as a delicate pour-over or a vibrant espresso, this coffee is your map to a new flavours destination. Don’t miss out on this limited treasure!
