Edmond Kanyamibwa, the owner of karambi Mtn coffee, prizes quality above all else. Edmond built his first washing station in 2014. At the end of the 2015 season, as he toured around his home village, he found an area with good coffee farms, but there was no washing station to help farmers process their cherries for good quality. He built Karambi Coffee washing station, and operated it that following season. His experience on managing wet mills helped him to deliver high quality washed coffees. At the station the cherry is delivered, floated and separated before then being pulped and fermented until the mucilage is loose enough to be washed off. From here the coffee is then washed in the the grading channels before being transfered to the raised beds for 10-14 days to dry to 11% moisture.

J.J. Darboven has been brewing coffee in Ireland since 1989. The name Eighty9 is a throwback to the year that Eamonn started our journey. The beans inside are from the best growing regions on the planet, cultivated by dedicated farmers, and roasted by experts, in Ireland.

Our small lot roastery in Ireland allows us to produce region specific coffees, which are truly at the forefront of the coffee movement. As coffee roasters, our ethos is simple – each master roaster must know how to interpret the colour, the aroma & even the crackling of roasted coffee beans, to ensure that each and every bean is roasted to perfection. After all, we breathe coffee.
