Over 800 smallholders deliver their ripest cherries to the Kabingara Factory, a washing station owned by the local cooperative. Our AB lot is juicy and sweet, with bright notes of currant and cranberry balanced by smooth nougat. The slightly smaller AB grade beans are packed with flavour, bringing delicious depth of flavour when roasted for espresso.

    Robert ★★★★★

    The washed process really lets the SL28 and SL34 varietals shine—my V60 brew came out clean with a bright, tea-like body that I haven't gotten from other Kenyan lots this year. At 1750 meters, the altitude gives it a crisp acidity that carries through even as the cup cools.

    Pulled it as a double espresso and the crema was thick and golden, with a clean, bright body that cut right through the milk in my cortado. The SL28 and SL34 blend at this altitude really delivers that classic Kirinyaga snap.

    Brewed it as a pour-over at 1750 meters altitude and got this bright, clean cup with a real stone-fruit sweetness I wasn’t expecting. The SL28 and SL34 blend holds up beautifully through the whole mug, makes me want to try it as espresso next.
