How do we feel about this coffee?
It feels like sipping on an apple juice box, rollerskating with friends under a disco ball, and a night out at a neon-lit wine bar alternating between fountain cola and cassis.
Coffee Story
Grown by 2500 smallholder farmers near Kibugu, in the Kiranyaga county in central Kenya, this classic SL 28 and SL 34 Kenyan coffee is processed at the Kii Factory. The site was built in 1995, and the tiled washing channels and fermentation tanks are beautiful. From the 5’ x 4’ digitally connected coffee scale to their 300 drying tables and conditioning bins that hold up to 14,000 kgs of parchment, Kii Factory is an established presence in the area. It handles the coffee cherries from surrounding farmers' members.
