Behind this coffee is the family of producer Mohammed, specifically his aunt, who owns the Kirimara Estate farm . It is located in the Nyeri area , in the Sidama region , at an altitude of 1,200-1,800 meters above sea level.Thanks to the specific microclimate, theSL28 and SL34 varietiesripen evenly here and develop a complex flavor. This coffee is 100% direct trade – no middlemen, no unnecessary steps between the farm and the cup. Koun Coffee met Mohammed in Vienna and has been working with him directly ever since. Fairly, sustainably, based on a personal relationship and mutual trust.
The beans were processed using the yellow honey method . After hulling, part of the pulp remains on the bean during drying, which increases sweetness and develops a dense body and fruitiness. This method is unique in Kenya and gives the coffee a juiciness that stands out from the usual Kenyan framework. A cupping score of 88 points confirms what you will feel after the first sip – that this Kenyan coffee is truly different. And exceptionally good.
