The coffee story
The words Ol Donyo Sabuk mean "large mountain" in Maa - a tribal language spoken by the Maasai community in Kenya. This coffee is from the Ol Donyo Sabuk Coffee farm located in Machakos County. A region with great coffees that need to be highlighted and shared more with the rest of the coffee world. Machakos County is located in Kenya's Eastern Highlands, about 100 km from Nyeri County. The weather in this region is perfect for other crops such as fruit trees, avocado and banana trees, that help substitute producer income , bee keeping is another popular activity as well.
The process
Sometimes referred to as ‘’the dry process,’’ coffee is dried inside the intact coffee cherry and as such requires little to no water. Ripe coffee cherries are harvested and laid out on raised coffee beds where they are raked and turned frequently to maintain even drying. In this process the sugars and flavours of the cherry itself are imparted to the bean contributing to a natural coffee characteristic.More from this seller
