Kenya Tegu SL28 & SL34
Process: Washed Cupping Notes : Citrus, Stewed Apple & Black Tea In the highlands of Kenya, where fertile volcanic soils meet cool mountain air, Tegu Factory produces coffees that are widely recognized for their clarity and vibrancy. Situated near the town of Karatina in Nyeri County, this washing station operates under the Tekangu Farmers’ Cooperative Society, alongside its sister factories Karogoto and Ngunguru. The name “Tegu,” meaning “low place,” reflects its geographical setting in the foothills between Mount Kenya and the Aberdare Range. At an altitude of approximately 1,700 meters above sea level, the region benefits from conditions ideal for coffee cultivation. The combination of rich soil, high elevation, and a cool climate slows the maturation of coffee cherries. This extended development period allows sugars and acids to concentrate, resulting in the bright, citrus-forward profiles that have become synonymous with Kenyan coffees. The washing process retains higher levels of acidity and complex fruit flavours resulting in a deliciously juicy cup. We are enjoying this coffee as a pour over, allowing the brightness of the fruit flavours to really shine through!
