Morrow Coffee

About This Coffee

This coffee originates from the Njuriga Washing Station in Nyeri County, Njuriga region, Kenya, at 1700-1800 meters altitude. Run by Pauline Mumbi Karim since 1999, the station works with 470 small-scale producer members. The coffee features SL28 and SL34 varieties grown in nutrient-rich clay soils. This lot uses the rare anaerobic natural processing method for Kenya, where cherries are anaerobically fermented in sealed tanks then sun-dried whole on raised beds. The process creates distinct sweetness and creamy body with flavor notes of strawberry, kiwi, and cocoa.

Morrow Coffee

Kim and Andrey founded Morrow Coffee in Barcelona in 2017, installing a roasting machine directly inside their space so customers could witness the process. Andrey manages the roasting, receiving green beans and developing profiles that lean away from the bitterness of over roasted commercial coffee. The operation sources from Colombia, Brazil, Ethiopia, and Burundi, offering tasting notes that range from plum and black tea to hazelnuts and grapefruit. Alongside espresso, Morrow serves coffee through Aeropress, Chemex, and V60. The space itself occupies a bright, sunny corner near Plaza Espana, with large windows and a modern industrial interior. Morrow followed in the footsteps of Barcelona pioneers like Nomad and Syra, and has built a loyal following for its transparent approach to roasting and its consistent, flavor forward cups.
