The Project

Baho Coffee Company manages more than 10 coffee washing stations in different regions of Rwanda and Burundi, ensuring meticulous processing and high-quality output at each site.

Baho Coffee Company is much more than a coffee producer—it's a socially committed enterprise that supports over a thousand rural families through responsible practices, innovation in processing methods, community empowerment, and a strong focus on quality and sustainability.

Emmanuel Rusatira, the founder, combines deep technical expertise with a human-centered vision, positioning Baho as a benchmark for specialty coffee from Rwanda and beyond.

The Coffee

After harvesting and depulping the ripe cherries, MUSHA CWS coffee undergoes a crucial wet fermentation stage.

This takes place in clean water tanks, where the beans remain submerged for 18 to 36 hours. During this time, natural enzymes break down the mucilage—a sugary layer surrounding the bean—until it is fully dissolved.

The fermentation time depends on ambient temperature: in cooler climates like Gatsibo, the process is slower, allowing for greater development of acidity and clarity in the cup.

Once fermentation is complete, the beans are thoroughly washed to remove any remaining residue, setting the stage for drying and eventual export.
