rwanda coffee
by dancing goats coffee · olympia, usa
you'll taste lemon before grapefruit. this is rwanda sholi natural, a natural rwanda from dancing goats coffee.
it leads with blueberry, stone fruit, lemon, and grapefruit, with a citrus zest edge and a tea-like, black tea finish that keeps the overall cup feeling lighter than the fruit might suggest.
it is a bourbon varietal from rwanda, processed using the natural method, meaning the whole coffee cherry dries with the fruit intact before the bean is separated, which draws out the pronounced fruit and berry character.
filter brewing methods like pour over work well here, giving the citrus, fruit, and tea-like notes room to express clearly without becoming muddled.
...and that's exactly what you get at dancing goats coffee on market street. the single-origin offerings rotate with real intention here, not just whatever landed cheapest that week. olympia's got plenty of coffee options, but this roaster takes the sourcing seriously enough that you can actually taste the difference between regions. their espresso pulls clean and bright, which sounds simple until you realize how many places get it wrong. the space fills with people who know what they're drinking, not just grabbing caffeine on autopilot. you'll find yourself lingering longer than planned, especially when they've got something exceptional from ethiopia or guatemala running through the machine. late afternoon brings the best crowd, when the light hits just right and everyone's settled into their second cup.
