What Baobab Coffee Roasters says about this coffee

This vibrant and expressive Kenya is grown in Kirinyaga, on the slopes of Mount Kenya, where volcanic soils and an altitude of 1,600–1,700 m create some of the finest coffee-growing conditions. The cherries come from around 1,550 smallholder farmers of the Thirikwa Farmers' Cooperative Society, growing mostly the SL28 and SL34 varieties.

Cherries are hand picked in the morning and processed the same day: pulped, fermented, washed, then dried on raised beds.

The processing takes place at Gakuyu-ini wet mill, recognized as one of the best-paying factories for farmers in Kenya. To support accessibility, the wet mill has established cherry collection centers for farmers who live too far to deliver directly on foot.

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.

How it sits among coffee from Kenya

Every family the roaster names is a common one for coffee from Kenya, so this reads as a typical example rather than an outlier.

A further 6 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.
