It is roasted to a medium-light level, ensuring the unique profile of each process shines through.
The honey-processed coffees originate from the Kanguya Factory in Murang'a County. This region, known for its red volcanic soil and high-altitude climate, provides the perfect conditions for growing high-quality beans. Kanguya Factory supports hundreds of smallholder farmers with technical training and resources, fostering a commitment to quality and community.
Honey processing is a method that sits between washed and natural processing. The fresh cherries are pulped, but some of the sugary mucilage—or "honey"—is left on the beans before they are slow-dried on raised beds. This process enhances the coffee's sweetness and body. The amount of mucilage left on the bean and the drying method dictate the final outcome, resulting in a spectrum of flavors from light (yellow honey) to dark (black honey).
