This AA Top grade fully washed coffee is from Kamundu Estate in Kiambu, Kenya. Kamundu is a 155ha coffee farm first established by British colonists and is now one of 6 estates owned and operated by Sasini. The lot employs a traditional Kenyan fully washed process where selected cherries are pre-graded, de-pulped, fermented for 12-48 hours, washed in grading channels, soaked, and dried on raised African beds for 2-3 weeks. The coffee features SL28 and SL34 varieties grown at 1950 meters altitude, producing flavors of lemon, peaches and cream, and chocolate.
Outpost Coffee was founded in Nottingham in 2013 as a small, focused specialty roastery. A training centre followed in 2015, and a coffee bar on Stoney Street opened in 2016 beneath the training room. Head roaster Chris tweaks profiles for each origin and varietal, typically offering coffees roasted for both filter and espresso. The roastery now supplies over 80 specialty coffee shops, hotels, restaurants, and offices across the UK. Their sourcing includes direct trade with indigenous communities, and packaging is fully recyclable with FSC certified shipping boxes and carbon neutral delivery. Milk at the café comes from The Duffield Dairy in Derbyshire.
