rugali ruanda | notas miel is a honey-processed bourbon from nyamasheke, rwanda, roasted by quinto café. honey processing means the cherry skin is removed but some or all of the mucilage is left on the bean during drying, which typically adds body and a mild sweetness while preserving origin character. nyamasheke sits near lake kivu in western rwanda, a region known for well-structured, fruit-forward coffees. brew it as a filter or pour-over to let the clean sweetness and bourbon character come through without added pressure masking the processing notes.

about quinto café

you're on calle de neptuno, a quiet residential stretch in tres cantos that doesn't get much foot traffic from people who aren't already heading somewhere specific. quinto café sits at number four, local 4b, which means you'll probably walk past it once before you find it. that slight friction is worth it. this is a roaster that takes the sourcing and roasting side seriously, not just the front-of-house experience, and the regulars here have noticed. people don't come back this consistently to a place in a local 4b without a reason. the neighborhood runs at a different pace than central madrid, and the coffee here fits that. come on a weekday morning, when calle de neptuno is still unhurried, and take your time with whatever's on the filter menu that week.
