What the Brand Says
This natural lot from Elshadai Estate in Kiambu County may mark the farm’s final harvest, as rising land value near Nairobi threatens its future. Discovered by Kenyan coffee professional Judy Murimi, the coffee underwent an estimated two-day anaerobic fermentation before drying on raised beds. With layered sweetness and gentle fruit complexity, it offers a compelling profile while being a tribute to a disappearing coffee landscape.This natural lot from Elshadai Estate in Kiambu County may mark the farm’s final harvest, as rising land value near Nairobi threatens its future.
