Environment: This coffee is Rainforest Alliance Certified, ensuring it’s produced with care for the environment and local communities. Farmers use organic fertilizers, preserve at least 40% tree canopy cover, and practice climate-smart agriculture. These methods protect soil and water, support biodiversity, and reduce the carbon footprint of coffee production.

Background story: Grown on the fertile slopes of Mt. Kenya and the Aberdares, this coffee comes from smallholder farmers who are part of the Mugaga Farmers’ Cooperative Society in Nyeri. Over 790 farmers—many with just a few hundred coffee trees—deliver their ripe cherries to the Gatina Washing Station, where quality is a shared commitment.

The cooperative plays a vital role in improving farmers’ livelihoods. It supports training in sustainable agriculture, invests in better processing methods, and promotes inclusion—30% of the members are women. Through careful harvesting, clean washed processing, and drying on raised beds, these producers consistently deliver coffee with exceptional clarity and character.

By choosing this coffee, you’re supporting a farming community that values quality, sustainability, and shared growth.
