It quickly became established as a favorite of ours in the Baho network, producing consistently excellent washed, natural, and experimentally processed lots.  In recent years Fugi has transformed into what Emmanuel has called Baho’s hub for innovation, with now over 50% of Fugi’s production dedicated to honey, natural, and anaerobic style processing. Fugi has additionally served as homebase for numerous pilot projects - like the first women producer group, a parabolic drying structure, and a small composting facility producing organic fertilizers. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFugi was built in 2013, but it was purchased by Emmanuel in 2016. Since then, he’s dedicated this station to solely producing specialty grade coffee. Fugi was Emmanuel’s very first station; and thus, it’s a key component of the foundation upon which Baho Coffee was built.  It’s the third smallest station in the Baho collection, purchasing cherry from around 950 smallholder farmers and producing 900 bags of exportable green coffee each year.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor this coffee the cherries are first stored in clean plastic bags for a brief 8 hour in-cherry fermentation period before being depulped. The wet parchment then undergoes a 12 hour wet fermentation. Here the coffee is rigorously washed to remove any remaining mucilage. The coffee is then dried on shaded beds for 12 - 72 hours. The parchment is finally moved into semi-shaded raised drying beds within a parabolic drying structure. When moisture content reaches the target of below 11%, the drying phase is considered complete.  The parchment is bagged, labelled, and stored in a dry warehouse at Fugi until time for milling. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWHY WE SELECTED THIS COFFEE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur second fruit forward Rwandan washed coffee of the year has arrived. It is something special.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrown in the southern reaches of Ngoma Sector, right along the border of Burundi, this lot reflects a distinct terroir that sets it apart from anything else we have released this season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the cup, it leans into a deeper, sweeter profile. Ripe pear leads with a heavier, honey syrup body that lingers long on the palate. It is incredibly juicy, with a sweetness that feels both rich and refined. Beneath that, subtle herbal notes of soft sage weave through the cup, layered with fleeting flashes of lime that brighten the finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the kind of coffee that is easy to come back to every day. Comforting, expressive, and full of character. We have enjoyed this best as a pourover that can be pushed for clarity or sweetness as its very forgiving. A great look into more Rwandan terroir that we hope you'll enjoy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Moonwake Coffee Roasters","offers":[{"title":"227g \/ 8oz","offer_id":53022119919938,"sku":null,"price":14.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1kg","offer_id":53022119952706,"sku":null,"price":47.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"2.2kg \/ 5lb","offer_id":53022119985474,"sku":null,"price":97.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0922\/6564\/4354\/files\/FugiKiyonzaHillEmmanuelRusatiraWashedRedBourbonAssets_Web.png?v=1778094535","url":"https:\/\/moonwake-coffee-roasters-wholesale.myshopify.com\/products\/sundog-rwanda-fugi-kiyonza-hill-rwanda","provider":"Moonwake Coffee Roasters Wholesale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
