Githongo AA

Kiambu is a county in the former Central Province of Kenya. It is within Greater Nairobi, which consists of four out of 47 counties in the country. It is home to the Bantu ethnic group called the Kikuyu.

This coffee is sourced from 1200 farmers around the Githongo factory in Kiambu. The factory‘s among one of the factories in the giant Komothai FCS. It was established in 1968 and is owned by small scale farmers. The soil is composed of fertile red volcanic sediment with some patches of loam and black cotton. Coffee cultivation is the only cash crop apart from subsistence and dairy farming, and has therefore improved the livelihoods of the local people.

The resulting cup reminds us of mango, apricot and blackberry.
