This exceptional AA Fully Washed lot is a true representation of Kenya’s finest coffee, grown by dedicated smallholder farmers on the fertile slopes of the Aberdare Range in Murang’a County. The cherries are meticulously handpicked and delivered to the Ruona Factory—an esteemed wet mill under the Ruchu Gacharage Farmers Cooperative Society, established in 1961. With only about 600 farmers contributing to this lot, it reflects a deep commitment to quality and tradition. Washed with pristine river water and nurtured by volcanic soils, high altitudes, and cool mountain air, this coffee offers a cup profile that is vibrant, complex, and truly remarkable.
