Origin Story:
R & B Import Export was formed by an inspirational leader, Jacqueline Turner and Malcolm Clear, who work closely with the local population to not only produce premium quality coffee, but also to improve the local environment with a strong emphasis on building quality schools and local healthcare outposts. The majority of farmers are widows from the Rwandan genocide.
Kinini has developed a global reputation for the speciality coffees they produce and have become synonymous with positive impact in Rwanda
About the Artwork:
Illustrator Fiona McDonnell, the artist behind this coffee series, was inspired by the intricate and cultural connections shared between Rwanda, Peru and Colombia. From their bio-diverse farming methods and weather to their cultural celebrations, the artwork showcases the strong relationship between farmer and landscape; whilst highlighting the important balance between work and play. Influenced by the rich heritage of these three countries, Fiona makes clever use of their traditional weaving techniques to marry the elements of each unique culture together in perfect harmony.
