The coffee story
Kibukwo FCS is located in the picturesque Nandi Hills, also known as the home of champions. Nandi County is home to many world record holders in athletics, including Kipchoge Keino, Henry Rono, Eliud Kipchoge, Pamela Jelimo, Janeth Jepkosgei, Moses Tanui, Julius Yego, Jairus Birech, Conseslus Kipruto and Bernard Lagat.
Kibukwo FCS has approximately 512 active members and has also been a beneficiary of the Growing Women in Coffee project. Through this project, men who belong to Kibukwo started giving their wives and some youth a few coffee bushes that they would maintain and harvest as their own.
With time, the project saw the women attain more economic independence and a sense of self-confidence as they received other forms of training from the Climate Academy. Over the years the cooperative now has women in leadership positions and improved coffee quality remarkably.

The process
The coffee cherries are carefully handpicked, sorted then soaked in fermentation tanks overnight. The coffee is then dried on elevated drying beds under the sun and during the heavy rains in green-house like sheds to achieve the appropriate moisture content prior to milling and export.More from this seller
