Coffee Facts

The coffees from Karogoto are always super clean and have an intense fruity and floral flavour. This is most likely because many of the members/farmers are still growing the SL28 cultivar and have received a lot of agricultural training over the years. The climatic conditions also contribute to the coffees intensity. The cool nights and moderately hot days slow down the ripening process and give a very sweet, intense and unique coffee.

This years coffee tastes really ripe and fruity like blackberry and blackcurrants. Normally the coffees from Karogoto tend to have a lighter body and high acidity with tart rose hip flavours but this year I think the profile is slightly different and leaning towards more of that «classic Kenyan» style with loads of purple fruit flavours.
