£3.61 per 100gProduct information
Gishwati Cloud Forest coffee is grown 60km from the unique ecological hotspot that is Virunga Park and is home to a quarter of the world's last mountain gorillas and other endangered zebra-looking Okapi. Gishwati use to host a big number different species of primates such as Chimpanzees and Golden monkeys. However, much of it was cleared for subsistence farming. Deforestation was so intensive that by 2001 only 6km of native Gishwati forest remained.
The coffee rewards 700 organic farmers for sustainable land management practices. This is not yet a carbon registered project and we have been talking to the NGOs about how we might help raise some funds to support a payment for ecosystem services initiative. In the meantime, we are keeping things in the family by offsetting the Rwandan coffee carbon footprint with the carbon from our Ugandan farmers!

very pleasant but absolutely does not have any kick whatsoever, in fact I just want to sleep every time i drink it.
Gorgeous flavour!
This is one of my favourites from the Source Climate range which is hard to choose because they really are gorgeous. Highly recommend this one it’s tasty, smooth and has won taste awards!
Its my go to daily
Source Coffee is so unique. I found them through the Tasters Choice Awards! Discerning coffee lovers will not be disappointed. (If youre a fan of the chain stores that over roast, this is not for you)
Exactly what it says on the packet
The flavour profile is spot on. Citrusy and slightly sweet, quite the refreshing combo for the morning. I can’t wait to try more of the source range!
My favourite all time coffee
Ive been buying this coffee for a while, and I wouldn’t be able to choose any other coffee! It’s my old faithful and would recommend to any coffee lover without hesitation
