One of only 74 speciality food products to win the maximum 3 Star Gold at the Great Taste Awards 2008 from the 4800 entries & a 2 Star Gold winner in 2009. Grumpy Mule have been buying this coffee for several years now & it never ceases to amaze. Now with around 2000 members of which around 80% are women, Musasa (or “ Dukunde Kawa”) Cooperative & the RWASHOSCCO organisation is based in the Rushashi district of Kigali Ngali province. The natural advantages of climate, altitude & Red Bourbon coffee trees presented a unique opportunity for Musasa & its farmers
- to embrace the skills & knowledge that would allow them to grow & process high quality lots of coffees. None of this could have been achieved without the support of the PEARL (now SPREAD) Coffee Program, which has helped to establish localised cooperatives throughout Rwanda's coffee growing regions. This support has included the building of washing stations to process the coffee cherries, vital technical assistance & providing the foundations necessary to export directly to the speciality coffee market & its higher price rewards. Each year Grumpy Mule buy a unique “E lot” of sun-dried Bourbon from the Musasa cooperative. These exceptional lots represent the very finest specialty coffees available from Musasa.

Tanzania Footprint coffee is sourced from Blackburn Estate peaberry & AA (flat bean) lots that are exclusive to Grumpy Mule Each year they source a unique lot of “peaberries”, where the two beans usually found within a coffee cherry have fused into one
- these are then separated at the milling stage & batched together. The taste is more intense & very fragrant. The quantity of this coffee varies from season to season, therefore availability of the peaberry can be limited. Another of East Africa's most distinguished coffee plantations, the Blackburn Estate is owned & managed by passionate husband & wife team Michael & Tina Gehrken. It can be found on the western slopes of Mount Oldeani in Northern Tanzania, an idyllic farm gazing down on the wide valley below. Being located near to the scenic Ngorongoro conservation area, both elephants & water buffalo are frequent “trespassers” on the estate. The huge elephant footprint Ian found one morning during his visit has inspired the name of this exceptional coffee. They'd actually taken an overnight liking to one of the estates underground water pipes & had impressively excavated it to create a spontaneous watering hole! The attention to harvesting & processing detail on this estate is incredible, resulting in a wide selection of micro-lots, from the different zones of the farm, that each have their own subtle nuances & aromas. Pickers select only the very ripest cherries from the historic Bourbon & Kent Arabica coffee trees, many of which were first planted in 1931. The cherries are pulped & the coffee fermented in the cool, overnight conditions before being carefully washed the next morning ready to be sun-dried on shaded nets. All stages are meticulously controlled & monitored. To this day, Ian from Grumpy Mule still maintains that this is the best coffee farm he's yet visited.
