Description
This Kenya Ndaroini AB comes from smallholder farmers delivering cherry to the Ndaroini Factory in Nyeri County, one of Kenya’s most celebrated coffee-growing regions. Grown at 1600–1800 masl in rich volcanic loam soils near Mount Kenya, the coffee benefits from cool highland conditions that help develop bright acidity, layered sweetness, and clear fruit character. The lot is fully washed and dried on raised beds, a traditional Kenyan approach that emphasizes clarity, structure and a clean finish. Roasted as a medium filter for Summer School, this coffee expresses a refreshing and structured cup with notes of blackcurrant, orange, and black tea, supported by lively citrus acidity, gentle sweetness and an elegant tea-like finish.

SOURCING STORY
Ndaroini Factory is supported by smallholder coffee farmers in Nyeri County, Kenya, one of the country’s most respected regions for high-quality washed coffees. Located in the central highlands near Mount Kenya, the area’s cool climate, high elevation, and volcanic loam soils help produce coffees with vivid acidity, clear fruit character, and layered sweetness. Farmers deliver carefully harvested coffee cherry to the Ndaroini Factory, where the coffee is fully washed and dried on raised beds to preserve clarity and structure. For this medium filter roast, the result is a classic Nyeri profile: bright, refined, and expressive, with notes of blackcurrant, orange and black tea.
