Gitesi is a well known washing station in Rwanda amongst coffee professionals, particularly from roasters like ourselves who have been aware of it for a long time due to the consistent quality being produced here. When we tasted this coffee earlier this year we immediately knew we had to have it. It was clearly the best coffee on our table of samples. We loved it so much that we ordered more than we normally would for a filter coffee. It's currently our roasters favourite filter coffee and I hope you enjoy it as much as we have been. In simple terms, this is an easy to drink filter coffee with medium sweetness and some lovely complexity.
