A first here at Altitude, a classic washed Kenyan coffee. A beautiful number with notes of blackberry and maple syrup, delicious!
This coffee was produced by smallholder farmers belonging to the Thirikwa Farmers Cooperative Society delivering to the Gakuyuini wet mill. Located near the towns of Kerugoya and Kianyaga in Central Kenya.
Gakuyuini is the Cooperative’s sole wet mill and, itself, is located at 1,600 metres above sea level. Small holder farmers delivering to the mill hail from the surrounding villages of Githiru, Gituba and Mukure, and their small farms dot the southern slopes of Mt Kenya at 1,500 to 1,900 metres above sea level.
