Best of Rwanda No. 1 - K-Organics - Auction Lot RABC 15

K Organics is a family-run organic estate in Huye District, Southern Rwanda. Spanning 30 hectares, with 25 devoted to coffee cultivation, the farm grows its trees beneath a living canopy of fruit trees that protect the land while nurturing biodiversity.

For the K Organics family, excellence is rooted in full stewardship. Every stage of coffee production is completed on-site, allowing for precise care and attention to detail. This dedication earned them 1st place in the Special Processes category at the 2025 Best of Rwanda, where their winning lot also set a national auction record — selling for nearly fourteen times the market average.

Like many coffee estates in Rwanda, K Organics focuses on cultivating Arabica, particularly varieties developed by the Rwandan Agricultural Board (RAB). This selection features RAB C15, a resilient, high-yielding tall variety bred for resistance to leaf rust and coffee berry disease.

At K Organics, however, this variety’s durability is only the starting point. Through natural anaerobic fermentation, the team transformed this hardy cherry into something far more expressive and layered.

For all coffees, K Organics also extend care beyond post-processing. Every step happens within the estate itself. Compost is produced on-site, botanicals grown on the farm are used for natural pest control, and harvesting is done through meticulous handpicking at peak ripeness followed by detailed sorting. Each decision balances careful research with intuitive craftsmanship — a philosophy that defines the character of every lot they produce.
