Description

Nyeri, Kenya, is a land rich in wildlife, lush rainforests, and exceptional coffee cultivation. Nestled between Mount Kenya and the Aberdare Mountains, this unique valley enjoys almost perfect climatic conditions for growing coffee.

Around 1,117 small-scale farmers deliver their cherries to the Gathaithi mill, where the coffee is carefully sorted and processed. These farms are often only 1/8 to 1/4 of a hectare in size, with coffee being just one of several crops they cultivate.

Kenyan coffee is prized for its bright, vibrant acidity and delightful sweetness, and this year's Gathaithi offering does not disappoint.

Roaster

Marvell St Coffee Roasters

Marvell St select and roast coffees that are balanced, naturally sweet and free of defects, believing in minimal intervention, both on the farm level, and when roasting the raw green product. This philosophy leads them to buy the best quality coffee from Central and South America, West Africa as well as locally from Byron Bay. On a community level, they support businesses that operate with a shared intent to benefit the local community and environment.  

As a growing company they are conscious of their impact on the environment, and try to make as little impact as possible. They use a Loring Smart roaster designed to be extremely efficient and low emission. They hand deliver local orders in reuseable buckets saving about 250,000 coffee bags yearly from going into landfill. Their retail coffee bags are 100% recyclable and they make their shipping satchels from the materials their green beans are stored in.
