Kenya AB Kirurumwe

Notes : V8splash /butterscotch / Greentea/
Biv tastes -burnt Sienna
This Kenya AB lot was produced by smallholder farmers organized through Kirurumwe Farmers Cooperative Society in Murang’a County, between the Aberdare foothills and Mt. Kenya. The cooperative operates a single main factory, Kirurumwe Coffee Factory, where all cherry is delivered for centralized processing.
The society supports producers through collective processing and marketing, with a focus on improving quality and farmer returns through updated infrastructure, including digital weighing systems and eco-pulpers. Approximately 500–1,000+ smallholder farmers contribute to the factory.
Coffee in this region is grown at elevations ranging from approximately 1,600–1,800 masl in rich volcanic soils with cool temperatures and consistent rainfall. These conditions support slow cherry development and contribute to dense beans with bright acidity and layered fruit character.
The lot consists primarily of SL28, SL34, Ruiru 11, and Batian varieties. SL28 and SL34 are traditional Kenyan cultivars valued for cup quality, while Ruiru 11 and Batian provide disease resistance and yield stability.
Arto was fascinated by the auction system that governs most of Kenya’s coffee trade and decide to ride to Kenya in the coffeetron whip and bid on a special bag for the Tron fam . If you want to know a bit more about how code is traded in Kenya here a sip. We will share more in the near future .
