Situated between Mount Kenya and the Aberdare Range, just south of the equator lies the region of Nyeri. One of Kenya's most fertile lands, Nyeri receives sufficient rainfall and plenty of nutrient-rich red volcanic soil making it a perfect terroir for growing coffee.
Owned and operated by the Gikanda Farmers Cooperative Society, the Gichathaini Station is one of three washing and milling centre working with smallholder producers. Comes harvest time, every producer will meticulously handpick the coffee cherries, making sure to pick only the ripe cherries. Afterwards, the cherries are transported to the mill on the same day. Using the freshwater from the Ragati River, the coffee cherries go through a full wash processing which is a triple ferment process that takes up to 72 hours. The coffee beans are then put on a drying bed to dry in the sun.
This particular coffee has a “AA” grading, which is used to indicate the size of the beans. The ‘AA’ indicates that it is the largest size of beans in Kenyan coffee.
Our Kenya Gichathaini brings a juiciness of persimmon and winter melon with the refreshing brightness of green grapes.

We do a consistent weekly roast to ensure we can provide you with the freshest coffee. In addition to that, we are committed to provide coffee that are within 14 days of the roast date.
All our coffee beans are roasted on the FROCO FR15-I. A machine that gives us a ton of information like the ability to track temperatures of the beans, drum, and airflow just to name a few. This means we obtain and are able to monitor with a lot of information to ensure we can roast coffee with a high level of consistency.
We pack our whole beans coffee and ground coffee in a 250g airtight packaging. With a smaller packaging, it'll help to keep the coffee fresh and it prevents exposing a large amount of coffee to the environment which can change the flavours of the coffee.
We don't use any flavourings in our products/coffee. What you see on the packaging and our website are taste notes, our ways of depicting nuances of flavours in the coffee beans. So don't worry if you don't get the taste notes, as every taste buds bring a slightly different outcome.
