Mahembe is a privately owned washing station in Nyamasheke, western Rwanda, founded by Justin Musabyimana. After returning to his native region, Justin set up a wet mill on his family’s land and began working with neighbouring smallholders. We’ve been sourcing Mahembe lots through Nordic Approach since 2021 and value the station’s consistent focus on quality and strong local relationships. Grown at 1900m in volcanic soil and processed with care, this Red Bourbon lot is fruity and vibrant, with notes of mandarine, red apple and lavender.
