Ishano, meaning "relationship" in Kinyarwanda, reflects the collaborative spirit behind this coffee. Processed at Rwamatamu's Mbare washing station in Rwanda's Southern Province, it represents the work of hundreds of smallholder farmers and the long-term partnerships that support them.

Founded in 2015 by Rutaganda Gaston and Mukantwaza Laeticia, Rwamatamu is a family-run producer committed not only to quality coffee, but also to strengthening local communities. Cherries are carefully hand-sorted before being pulped, fermented, washed and dried on raised beds for around three weeks, resulting in a clean and expressive cup profile.

Beyond production, Rwamatamu invests heavily in farmer support programmes. A Women's Cooperative provides access to land, seedlings and agricultural training, while a Youth Association encourages younger generations to build careers within coffee, creating long-term opportunities across the region.

The result is a coffee shaped by collaboration, shared knowledge and a belief that strong communities are essential to producing exceptional coffee.

About Hundred House Coffee: "We founded Hundred House in 2016 after building careers across both art and speciality coffee, bringing together a shared passion for coffee and culture. From the beginning, we wanted to build slowly and intentionally, creating a company centred around exceptional coffee and a considered experience at every touchpoint; from the cafés and spaces that serve it, to the way it feels in your hands, through to the extraordinary coffees themselves. At its core, Hundred House was conceived as more than a roastery alone; a space where coffee, creativity and community could meaningfully intersect, and where supporting artists and creative practices would become part of the fabric of the business itself."
