Huyyyyyyyped to have another Kenya on the offer list. Deep sweetness and all the clean cup goodness you expect from a washed Kenya. After last years resounding feedback for our Kenya's we wanted to find one that matched the brief :) This fully washed AB lot is from Mchana estate which sits at around 1850 masl does that. 

The Mchana estate sits 35km north of Nairobi City and 10km west of Ruiru town, and covers 907 hectares of which 459 is the coffee bearing area. The estate employs 172 permanent workers covering tractor drivers, lorry drivers, watchmen, pump operators, mechanics and general workers. The estate is also supported by casual labour ranging from 200 to 1200 people depending on the time of year. The age of all workers is verified and under-18s are not allowed, labour allocation is free of tribal discrimination and all workers are treated equally regardless of gender or background. There is a crèche and daycare available on site where children of workers are cared for by qualified professionals and fed. In addition to this the estate houses Ngewe Primary School to cater for the children of the permanent workers and the wider local community.
