This coffee is from the Karatu Coffee Factory in Kiambu, Kenya, located on the red volcanic slopes of the Aberdare Mountains. It is produced by the Gitwe Cooperative Society of Farmers, consisting of 900 small-holder farmers, each with an average of 150 coffee trees who deliver their ripe cherries to the factory. The coffee features syrupy sweetness with notes of white raspberry, plum, and blood orange, with beautiful aromatics and a sugary sweet aftertaste.
