This Kenya coffee from the Tekangu Farmers’ Cooperative near Karatina in Nyeri County is a washed, double-fermented coffee. It is produced by smallholder farmers who hand-pick ripe cherries and dry the beans on raised beds. The process includes a double fermentation and a 24-hour soak in fresh water, resulting in clarity and vibrant acidity with a zesty, fruity cup profile.
