Looking for a fresh new coffee to start the year with? This is the one: a washed Kenya with tasting notes of tropical fruit and citrus rounded out by sweetness and chocolate. We love a fresh, bright coffee like this one!
Murarandia Factory is in Murang'a County, the birthplace of the Kikuyu community. The factory operates in Kenya’s central region under the Murarandia Farmers' Cooperative Society. The co-op also encompasseses Gatuya and Kahuro factories. It is managed by an elected board and a Secretary Manager, with seasonal workers brought in during peak harvest.
Kenyan green coffee beans are renowned for their bold, fruit-forward flavors and complex acidity. This coffee was grown in red, loamy soil at 1,600 to 1,800masl, slowly ripening at the high altitude in cool temperatures. The dominant varieties are SL-28 and SL-34, with small amounts of Ruiru 11.
For over a century, Kenya’s coffee could only be traded through a government-run auction system—one of the world's most transparent, designed to reward quality with higher prices. This system cemented Kenya’s reputation for consistently producing quality coffee. Since 2006, new legislation has allowed direct trade between farmers and international buyers.
