Description

This Kenya Ngomano lot comes from Machakos County, an emerging coffee region in eastern Kenya known for producing vibrant, high-elevation coffees with remarkable clarity and structure. Sourced from the cooperative’s smaller “fly crop” harvest, the coffee was fully washed using traditional Kenyan processing methods that emphasize meticulous sorting, extended washing and slow drying on raised beds. Roasted lightly for filter brewing, the cup expresses classic Kenyan character through notes of black currant, ripe plum, and refined black tea, supported by lively acidity, layered sweetness and a clean, elegant finish.


SOURCING STORY

Ngomano Factory is the sole washing station of the Ngomano Farmer Cooperative Society in Machakos County, Kenya, where 1,115 smallholder farmers cultivate coffee along the rolling hills east of Nairobi. The cooperative is supported by the Machakos Cooperative Union, which provides farmer training, agronomy support, and milling services that help maintain the high quality Kenya is known for worldwide. Grown between 1700 - 1800 meters above sea level, the coffee is carefully hand harvested, fully washed, and dried on raised beds to highlight the clarity, vibrant acidity, and layered sweetness characteristic of exceptional Kenyan coffees.
