Product description

This coffee scores 86.25 on the SCA rating and offers a bright and juicy coffee. This coffee has a silky mouthfeel of blackcurrant jam, white grape and oolong tea.

The Kainamui washing station services 1800 smallholders, each of them owning on average 200 trees. Kainamui, and New Ngariama Cooperative are known for giving back a big portion of the premiums to the producers as well as they provide financial support for school fees and farming needs.

Each lot consists of coffees from hundreds of smallholders in the local surroundings of the washing station (factory).

They sort the cherries before it goes into production. The coffees are traditionally processed with dry fermentation before being washed and graded in channels and dried on raised beds.

The farmers are mainly growing SL28 and SL34 but as with almost all Kenyan Cooperative coffees, it can be a mix of everything. Other normal cultivars are K7, Ruiru 11 and now also Batian.

This initiative is organised by Gente del Futuro (People of the Future), a collective created by Vava and made up of passionate people working towards empowering coffee communities, especially young women and girls.
