Rugori Kirezi, but what does Kirezi mean? "Beauty". The coffee lot Rugori Kirezi has been rated as the sweetest coffee naturally. Its notes of brown sugar and apricot are strongly felt in tasting.
The Rugori station, where the coffee is well treated, was built in 1978 in Busiga commune. We are therefore more than 1,680 meters above sea level in this coffee production. Rugori means "crown". The coffee station has around 2,000 producers from surrounding villages. The coffees grow very well due to favorable weather conditions. Indeed, the seasonal rains are a great benefit to coffee cherries. The Rugori car wash invests in sustainable development: water and the remaining compost of coffee cherries are recycled and used as fertilizer for other agricultural products. This cooperative of small producers often conducts agricultural training days to learn how coffee and other agricultural products are transformed into young workers.
