Getuya Coffee Factory has been a hub for smallholder farmers since 1964. Run by the Mwirua Farmers Cooperative Society, it represents 900 growers who each farm just a fraction of a hectare. Ripe cherries are handpicked, sorted, and undergo Kenya’s signature washed process—fermented, triple-washed, soaked, and dried on raised tables for 6-7days. This meticulous care produces a cup with elegant layers of plum, nashi pear, and black tea, reflecting both the land’s richness and the dedication of its farmers.
