Located in the Southern Province of Rwanda, Fugi is tucked between the Nyungwe National Forest and the border of Burundi. It quickly became one of our favorites in the Baho network, producing consistently excellent washed and natural lots.  Furthermore, it’s transformed into what Emmanuel is calling Baho’s hub for innovation.  Nearly 50% of Fugi’s production was alternatively (honey, natural, or experimental) processed during the past few seasons.

Fugi was built in 2013, but it was purchased by Emmanuel in 2016. Since then, he’s dedicated this station to solely producing specialty grade coffee. Fugi was one of Emmanuel’s first two washing stations, and it played an integral role as the foundation upon which he launched Baho Coffee operations back in 2016.  It’s the third smallest station in the Baho collection, purchasing cherry from around 950 smallholder farmers and producing 900 60kg bags of exportable specialty grade coffee each year.
