A thick and syrupy body serves up bold cherry tomato savory-sweetness. We're picking up a deep berry sweetness as the cup cools.

    Roaster’s Notes
    This coffee comes to us from the Gicherori Factory which is part of the Kibugu Farmer’s Cooperative Society in the Embu region in Central Kenya. The Coop started in 1994 and focuses on not only increasing coffee production but also offering training seminars, providing access to education and support for more sustainable processes for the 1200 members.
