FOR THE COFFEE

The Rwanda Isano Blend is a story of resilience and community. Sourced from smallholder farmers across Rwanda’s lush hills, it represents the spirit of unity—Isano meaning “five” in Kinyarwanda, after the five washing stations behind it.

Each farmer handpicks ripe Bourbon cherries, which are carefully washed and dried on raised African beds under the guidance of Muraho Trading. Born from Rwanda’s history of hardship, this blend symbolizes hope and strength, showing how coffee became a path to renewal for many families.

In the cup, it reveals delicate notes of honeysuckle, bergamot, and black tea, with a smooth, creamy body. Elegant yet expressive, the Isano Blend captures both Rwanda’s terroir and the determination of its people.

ABOUT Blind Monkey

Blind Monkey is a specialty coffee roastery based in Dublin, built on a simple idea: great coffee starts long before it reaches the cup. Every step — from sourcing to roasting — is guided by clarity, precision, and respect for origin. 

Founded by Irish Barista Champion and World Championship finalist Wojciech Tysler, Blind Monkey brings years of experience from competition stages into everyday coffee. What began as a personal pursuit of excellence evolved into a roastery focused on transparency, consistency, and flavour. 
They work closely with producers and cup extensively to select only coffees that truly stand out. Each lot is roasted in-house to highlight its natural character — clean, expressive, and honest. 

Blind Monkey is not just a name, but a mindset: focus on what matters and let the coffee speak.
