About This Coffee

Kenya Kii AA is sourced from the Thunguri station in Kirinyaga district, associated with the Kibirigwi Farmers Cooperative, which has seven stations and 1,500 active members each farming approximately half a hectare. The region features well-drained, fertile red volcanic soil alongside tea, macadamia, banana, and maize cultivation. Coffee is hand-picked by smallholder farmers and processed using a double washed fermentation method: cherries are sorted by density, fermented for approximately 24 hours, rewashed, fermented again for 12–24 hours, then soaked in clean water for 24 hours before drying on raised beds.

Mlsnacava

Mlsnacava is the roasting project of Šimon Staš, René Hauser, and Matúš Gulbiš, three colleagues better known in the Slovak coffee industry through their company STACOMB Coffee Consultants, which distributes premium equipment from brands like Victoria Arduino, Nuova Simonelli, and Acaia across the country. Based in Banská Bystrica in central Slovakia, the trio holds the distinction of being the only SCA certified trainers in the nation and among just three active Q Graders. They trained their roasting approach in Copenhagen and have built a technology focused operation with a long term goal of bringing a Loring roaster to Slovakia and establishing a shared roasting facility for the local community. Every coffee is selected without compromise, and the roastery's name reflects their worldview: a pursuit of flavor that leaves no room for shortcuts.
