Process:

The beans are wet-processed, ensuring that the intrinsic flavors of the coffee are preserved and highlighted in this light roast, maintaining a closer connection to the bean’s original characteristics and the terroir of the Nyeri County.

Region:

Nyeri County in Central Kenya is renowned for producing high-quality coffee beans, attributed to its favorable climate and altitude. The region’s specific conditions contribute to the coffee’s distinct and diverse flavor profiles, especially appreciated in the light roast.

1. Altitude: Nyeri County’s location on the slopes of Mount Kenya allows coffee to flourish at altitudes of about 1,200 to 2,300 meters above sea level, leading to beans enriched with vibrant flavors and aromatic intensity.

2. Rainfall: With significant annual rainfall, the region ensures that the coffee plants receive adequate moisture, essential for preserving the beans' intrinsic flavors and aromas.

3. Temperature: The moderate temperature range in Nyeri County, influenced by its high altitude, ensures a conducive environment for coffee beans to develop a broader spectrum of flavors, further enriched in the light roasting process.
