What does Umugani mean? 

Umugani is a Rwandan term (in Kinyarwanda) which we used when we were sitting around the fire with our elders, we’d tell our children, “come listen to a story from an elder.” This was such a special time for me growing up, it essentially means story time. Our Umugani Espresso roast pays homage to the tradition of story time, and we hope it inspires you to do the same.
