About This Coffee

Nyamasheke Wet is a Bourbon, washed coffee from Rwanda, sourced from the Kanzu Washing Station at 1,800–2,100 meters above sea level. The coffee undergoes pulping, 16–18 hours of dry fermentation, washing, and an extended soak before drying on raised beds, resulting in a refined, balanced cup. Tasting notes include orange zest and blossom, brown sugar, flowers, and honey, carried by a smooth body and a clean finish. Classic Nyamasheke expression: focused and quietly complex.

Chromatic Coffee

Chromatic Coffee was founded on October 13, 2012 by Hiver van Geenhoven, Wendy Warren, and James Warren in San Jose, California. The roastery operates an Opus 4 with a 200 pound drum, roasting exclusively to order on a Monday through Thursday schedule with a Wednesday evening cutoff for weekly fulfilment. Direct trade relationships include partnerships with Rosalio Ventura at Finca Elizabeth and Hidardo Hernandez at Finca Cascarita in Honduras, both supported by premiums that fund regenerative farming practices. The range specialises in micro lot, producer direct coffees including natural process and anaerobic fermented offerings. Chromatic won Metro's Best New Coffee Roaster in 2013 and Best Coffee Roaster in the 2025 Best of Silicon Valley awards, and is also an authorised dealer for La Marzocco, Fetco, Baratza, and Nuova Simonelli equipment.
