About this coffee

Country: Kenya Region: Karatina, Nyeri Farm : Smallhold farmers around the Thunguri Factory Varietal: SL 28 & SL 34 Processing: Fully washed Altitude: 1650 m a.s.l. ABOUT THE COFFEE AND FARM Thunguri Factory, near Karatina on the Kirinyaga-Nyeri border, has been producing coffee since 1962. It’s run by the Kibirigwi Farmers’ Cooperative Society and supports smallholder farmers across various neighbour villages. Thunguri is a classic Kenyan washed lot, grown at high elevation in cool conditions and rich volcanic soil. Its main varieties, SL28 and SL34, give the coffee Kenya’s signature bright acidity and fruit-forward character. We’ve selected this particular lot for its balance and definition, a clean, high-toned washed Kenya with ripe blackcurrant, floral acidity, and a crisp, tea-like finish. A vivid expression of Thunguri’s potential and the quiet dedication of its producer community. ROASTER'S OPINION We’ve selected this particular lot for its balance and definition, a clean, high-toned washed Kenya with ripe blackcurrant, floral acidity, and a crisp, tea-like finish.
