The coffee story
Owned by a young energetic Mutai Kinyua, this farm is located in Nkubu town - this is located on the eastern slopes of Mount Kenya within Meru county. It falls in one of the most fertile and best-watered parts of Africa with tea, coffee and dairy farming as the main economic activities.
Kinyua is an enthusiastic and outgoing young producer who has slowly worked to revive the family coffee farm and taken every opportunity to learn new technologies and processing methods to keep elevating his coffee quality. A complex coffee, bursting with blueberry notes, floral aromas to the nose and milk chocolate. Delicate body and a balanced structure overall.
This exciting coffee is a long time collaboration in the making between our founder Vava Angwenyi and Mutai Kinyua.
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
