rwanda coffee
by the roasting shed · london, uk
you'll taste lemon before grapefruit. this is kinini - rwanda, a natural rwanda from the roasting shed.
it leads with lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest, backed by a winey richness and jasmine florals that come from the natural process and bourbon varietal.
it is a bourbon varietal from rwanda, processed naturally, meaning the whole coffee cherry is dried with the fruit intact before the bean is removed.
filter or pour-over methods work well here, as they highlight the citrus brightness and floral notes without muting the winey fruit character that natural processing brings.
hornsey road isn't exactly shoreditch, but that's precisely why the roasting shed works so well here. tucked between finsbury park's everyday bustle, this little roastery has built something chains can't replicate: actual relationships. the kind where your barista remembers how you take your flat white without asking. their beans arrive raw and leave transformed, roasted in small batches with the sort of attention that shows in every cup. you can smell the difference when you walk in. that fresh, complex scent of coffee at its peak, not the bitter char of over-roasted beans sitting too long. regulars queue on saturday mornings not because it's trendy, but because the espresso here tastes like it was made for them specifically. 219 google reviews averaging 4.8 stars don't lie. some places chase instagram followers. the roasting shed chases that next great cup.
