Grown by Hanner Wanjiku Mukunga at 1,800–1,850 metres above sea level, the coffee benefits from rich volcanic soil, reliable rainfall and the cool climate surrounding the Aberdare forest. Only ripe cherries are handpicked before being depulped, fermented for 24 hours, washed and soaked in clean water for an additional 24 hours. The coffee is then carefully dried on raised beds for 10–18 days. This meticulous process produces the clarity, brightness and refined character for which Kenyan coffees are celebrated. A distinctive, traceable single-estate coffee that beautifully reflects its high-altitude origin.
