This coffee comes from the Kakindu Estate, located in the renowned Kiambu region of Kenya. The high-altitude conditions and rich soil provide an ideal environment for growing the SL28 variety, which is prized worldwide for its distinctive flavor profile and pronounced fruitiness. Every bean bears the mark of the meticulous care of the farmers in Kiambu, who prioritize quality at every stage of production. The result is a coffee with a clear origin and a transparent story, representing the best of traditional Kenyan farming and a modern approach to specialty coffee.
To preserve maximum purity and clarity of flavor notes, this coffee was processed using the classic washed method. After careful hand-picking, the cherries were hulled and then fermented in clean water, allowing its sparkling character to shine through fully without any distracting fermentation notes. The washed process gives Kakindu Estate coffee its characteristic body, lightness, and brilliant clarity, which even the most discerning specialty coffee lovers seeking authenticity and quality will appreciate.
