This Kenya AA is sourced from the Baragwi Coop located in Kirinyaga County, Kianjiru Wash plant. Kirinyaga County in Kenya is a growing region with very fertile soil in the foothills of Mount Kenya. Farmer plots are so small that measurements are based on the numbers of trees, not area of land. This is where the really high quality, needle in a haystack coffee comes from.
Farmers who process their coffee at the Kianjiru Factory are members of the Baragwi Farming Cooperative Society, which was established in 1953 and has 16,892 members. Baragwi supports a women’s group called the Mount Kenya Project, which was implemented to improve quality of life through socio-economic projects aimed at reducing poverty and increasing business knowledge in rural communities.
Note that this coffee has taken the place of our previous Kenya AA Twiga offering. We are confident that you will love this offering just as much if not more than the Twiga offering.
