The Shyira washing station was born in January 2017, the “Little Baby”.

Shyira is the smallest of all washing stations, managed by Evariste Hagumimana; however it is the highest located known in Rwanda, sitting at 1850 m.a.s.l.

The weather conditions, soil type and its high altitude lands, makes this CWS an ideal setting for high-quality coffee processing and production.

On the drive up to the CWS, when you reach the top of the Shyira hills, you will be met with a view that will take your breath away, the chain of volcanoes, in between the beautiful beasts of Rwanda, the Mountain Gorillas come to the waterfalls of the wonderful Gicice river.
