The washing station name: Intango is a Kinyarwanda word that signifies a beginning, a communal sharing space which for us means a central location from which farmers, staff, and community start as they grow and change their lives positively together.
The natural process involves meticulous cherry selection and hand sorting prior to drying. Drying is done on raised African beds for between 14 and 28 days, depending on the weather, and the coffee is turned regularly.
