{"product_id":"rwanda-kinini-village","title":"Rwanda Kinini Village","description":"\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eFrom our friends at Crop to Cup Coffee. “Kinini” translates loosely as “this big thing right here,” an apt name for one of the most ambitious and unconventional coffee projects we’ve encountered. Founded in 2014 by Jacqueline Turner, it began by leasing unused land, distributing free seedlings, and paying farmers for several years while trees matured. Once production began, farmers retained 100% of cherry payments and earned quality bonuses, with centralized processing at the Kinini washing station providing consistency, traceability, and access to market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eToday, Kinini brings together hundreds of smallholder farmers north of Kigali, roughly 85% of them women. Gender equity training—led by Seraphina, Kinini’s farmer liaison—led to the formation of women-led sub-groups within Kinini Village, the farms closest to the washing station. These groups organize collectively, reinvest premiums into their farms, and advocate for shared needs within the cooperative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eTasting Notes: Cola, black tea, honey, tamarind, lemon, caramel.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Troubadour Coffee Roasters","offers":[{"title":"12 oz","offer_id":49118684840164,"sku":null,"price":29.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 lb","offer_id":49118684872932,"sku":null,"price":33.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/8035\/6068\/files\/1rwanda-kinini-village-coffee-origin.webp?v=1781566880","url":"https:\/\/troubadourcoffeeroasters.com\/products\/rwanda-kinini-village","provider":"Troubadour Coffee Roasters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
