The Kibingo Washing Station in Kayanza commune is surrounded by hills which are covered by large farms. The owners participate in farmer outreach and project support, such as livestock rearing and initiatives to build cooperatives and boost yields. Pretty 'nice' if you ask us!
Kibingo serves 3,515 registered coffee growers who are spread over 18 hills in the area. All producers registered at a Greenco washing station are organised into groups of 30 people, headed by a farm leader. This leader acts as a spokesman to facilitate communication and organisation with the washing station.

Cairngorm Coffee
Edinburgh
Our story started in 2013 when a conversation in the Cairngorm National Park led to the dream of starting a quality focussed coffee shop in Scotland’s capital city.
An ensuing visit to Edinburgh to visit an empty sandwich shop on Frederick St paved the future for Cairngorm Coffee as we know it now.
Four years later we invested in our 12-kilo Probat roaster and started a long journey of trial and error to refine not just our roasting approach, but the necessary skills to source and assess the quality of the coffee we would roast.
Every day has been a learning day, and a fun one at that!
