This batch comes from a group of smallholder farmers, all members of the Mutheka Farmers Cooperative Society (FCS), who deliver their coffee to the Kiandu Coffee Factory. This factory is located in Kenya's renowned Nyeri County, near the town of Tetu.
Mutheka FCS is a relatively new cooperative, founded in 2004 following the split of the Giant Tetu Coffee Growers Co-Operative Society. Located in Nyeri County, between the Aberdare Mountains to the east and Mount Kenya to the west, it operates seven factories and brings together approximately 6,000 smallholder coffee farmers. Among these, the Kiandu Factory is one of the largest, with nearly 1,900 registered members. In Kenya, only a few coffee factories manage to deliver coffee each year.

In the beginning, there is a tree, cherries. Once picked, the cherries go through a phase of fermentation and then drying. Then the green coffee bean is ready to arrive at our ports. The transmission of these beans leaves the roaster with the heavy task of revealing their richness and putting you in the best conditions to extract it perfectly.
