What A Matter of Concrete says about this coffee

Kiangoi is a classic example of why Kirinyaga continues to be one of the most important coffee regions in Kenya.

The factory is managed by the Rung’eto Farmers’ Cooperative Society and sits near Embu, in the Ngariama location of Gichugu Division. Around 1150 smallholder producers from the surrounding villages deliver cherries to the wet mill, where the coffees are sorted, pulped, fermented, washed, graded, and dried with the kind of structure that makes Kenyan coffees so recognisable.

The cooperative was formed after the dissolution of Ngiriama FCS, bringing Kiangoi, Karimikui, and Kii together under the Rung’eto society. We have been buying coffees from Rung’eto since 2016, and their coffees have become a reference point for the kind of Kenyan profiles we look for: intense, clean, complex, and full of layered fruit.

This lot is grown on the slopes of Mount Kenya, between 1600 and 1800 metres above sea level. The area is rich in volcanic Nitisol soil, known for strong physical and chemical properties, which supports dense, well-structured coffees. Kiangoi is also interesting because it sits within tea-growing zones, adding another layer to the surrounding agricultural landscape.…

A further 2 facts on this page were read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for them.

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.
