Price not usable
Every price we hold for this coffee works out far outside the believable per kilo range for its own market, or repeats unchanged across different bag sizes, so we will not put a figure to it.
What Prolog Coffee says about this coffee
History
Our relationship with Kigari spans three years, with coffee purchased in 2022, 2023 and 2026. Based in the highlands of Meru County, Kenya, Kigari brings together farmers across four wet mills, producing exceptional coffee at 1,600–1,900 masl. The cooperative is deeply committed to its farmers, providing access to pre-financing, farm inputs on credit, school-fee support and emergency funds, practical support that helps farming families invest in their futures and sustain coffee production year after year.
Kigari’s impact extends beyond the cup. The cooperative encourages farmers to integrate Grevillea and macadamia trees into their coffee farms, providing shade while supporting environmental conservation, and promotes diversified farming with bananas and maize.
Kigari has a classic Kenyan character with a smooth everlasting acidity and notes of red fruit and pomegranate.

What the roaster says about where it came from
We report what the roaster publishes and we have not checked any of it independently. A fact nobody publishes is not a fault of the coffee: almost no roaster in the UK states an importer or the price paid to the producer.

Where each fact came from
Variety
Varietals: ruiru 11, sl 28, batian… part of a longer passage the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

A further 1 fact on this page was read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for it.
Taken from the roaster’s own pages, and nothing here has been verified by us or by an independent body. What we store is a passage of page text cut around the fact, so one shown with an ellipsis is a passage we cannot see the start or the end of; only the fully quoted ones are complete sentences.
