Comprising an equal split of two amazing origins; Ethiopia and Rwanda, Hey Buddy has developed a cult following amongst our filter fans thanks to its versatility around hot and cold-brewed methods.
The Ethiopian coffee comes to us from the Dumerso Washing Station in Yirgacheffe, a famous region of Ethiopian Coffee. Female owned and managed since 2014, Dumerso employ’s and trains a 95% female workforce of up to 400 staff seasonally, and works with a network of 330 local smallhold farmers. Hirut Birhanu, a coffee industry veteran with an astounding two decades of experience in production, processing and trading, is the driving force behind the operation.
The Rwandan coffee comes to us from the Mwito and Gatare washing stations of the West Nyamasheke region of Rwanda, via the Rwanda Trading Company (RTC). RTC focuses on providing economic freedom and security for smallholder farmers, by building resilient and transparent supply chains, and more than 80% of their coffee is fully traceable to the farmer. West Nyamasheke is a beautiful landscape, covered in wetlands fed by the nearby Lake Kivu.
This blend of coffees come together to create a crisp, clean and fruit forward cup with vibrant acidity. Simple and approachable, it’s no surprise this filter blend has been a mainstay on our coffee menu for eight years.
