High in Kenya’s central highlands, nestled in the shadow of Mount Kenya, lies the Kamwangi washing station—a place where some of the finest Kenyan coffees have been crafted for years. This AA fully washed top lot comes from Kamwangi, one of three factories managed by the New Ngariama Farmers Cooperative Society (FCS), and it’s no secret why we keep coming back. The dedication of the farmers and staff at Kamwangi shines through in every bean, season after season.
The coffee from this region, with its nutrient-rich soil fed by the extinct volcano, flourishes in the cool, misty air of Embu County. Known as one of Kenya’s traditional coffee-growing areas, Embu’s landscape is more than just scenic. It plays a pivotal role in developing the distinctive flavours found in your cup. Here, specialty coffee is more than just a crop—it’s part of the fabric of life, standing proudly alongside tea and macadamia nuts.
Each sip of our Kenya AA tells a story of rich soil, hard work, and time-honoured expertise. Expect notes of blackcurrant, raisin, and apricot—a symphony of flavours that are both bold and balanced, thanks to the meticulous care taken at every step, from seed to sip.
