Introducing an exceptional coffee from Women Coffee Extension (WCE) from the Mbizi coffee washer, now available at La Bohème Café. This exquisite beverage stands out with rich notes of cocoa, hibiscus, and red apple, creating a beautifully balanced cup, whether you enjoy it as a filter coffee or a fruity espresso.

The Story of Women Coffee Extension
WCE was founded with the aim of empowering women in Rwanda's coffee sector and offering them greater economic independence and leadership opportunities. The Mbizi washing station, located in the Kamonyi district, works with more than 700 women farmers who grow Bourbon Arabica coffee on high-altitude plantations. With an emphasis on sustainability, WCE supports its members through practical agricultural training, financial literacy programs, and community initiatives aimed at improving household incomes.
Looking ahead, WCE has set ambitious goals, such as obtaining Rainforest Alliance certification, which will increase the value of their coffee. They also plan to provide livestock to all members, offer comprehensive health insurance, establish a sewing workshop to create job opportunities for young people, and build a nursery school to support local children.
