Description
Our second Kenyan release of the 2026 season, a washed field blend from the Rungeto Farmers Cooperative Society. Coffees from this area tend to run high in acidity with a full, juicy mouthfeel, and this lot follows that, with red currant, rhubarb and pomegranate. The acidity is what carries the fruit and keeps it moving through the cup.
Rungeto FCS is one of Kirinyaga County's best-regarded cooperative societies, operating several factories, including Kii, across its membership territory on the slopes of Mount Kenya. The cooperative runs post-harvest processing, milling and export for hundreds of smallholder members, each contributing small volumes of cherry to the collective system.
