This is our first time collaborating with Cuprima, and we're super happy to be able to showcase this nice and mellow natural Simbi from Rwanda. Grown in the Huye district at elevations ranging from 1,980 to 2,250 meters, this Bourbon variety thrives in the region’s sandy clay soil, developing a beautifully balanced and fruit-forward profile.

After being carefully handpicked, the cherries undergo a meticulous natural drying process. First, they are dried under cover for 24 hours to ensure slow and even fermentation. Then, they are transferred to raised African beds, where they dry in direct sunlight for 15 to 18 days. This controlled process enhances the coffee’s natural sweetness and complexity, allowing the flavors to develop fully.

The result is a rich and smooth cup with layers of fig, cherry, and redcurrant, complemented by a deep chocolate fudge sweetness. Mellow yet vibrant, this coffee perfectly captures the elegance of Rwandan naturals: delicate, fruity, and irresistibly smooth!

To make our coffees more accessible, at Boo! we decided to only produce omni roastThat means that all of our coffees are meant to be used both as espresso or filter coffee. Follow our recipes at the bottom to get the best result with each coffee!
