Producer info and cup notes:
Within the Kiama FCS, Kiangundo operates at a similar scale to Ichuga with 839 members delivering cherry to their site at 1,800masl. Jackson Mahu Kooro, an active member of Kiama who delivers cherry to Ichuga, currently oversees operations at Kiangundo after working as a machine operator there for 17 years. Through Jackson's dedication and attention to detail, and the hardwork of its 5 permanent on site staff members, Kiangundo's quality remains stable year over year. After the predominantly red flavors of Ichuga, we were delighted to find this classical black currant cup as a good companion coffee to it. While hot, blackberry and blackcurrant jump to the top of the palate, eventually giving way to cleaner tones of white grape, orange blossom, and black tea, reminding us of a puer tea orange.
