## What the Brand Says

> Over 1,000 members of the Mutheka Farmers Co-operative Society produce the specially selected heirloom cultivar, SL28 – prized for its softly sweet and aromatic stone fruit and blackcurrant qualities. Upon harvest, these producers bring their ripe cherries to the nearby Kiandu factory. While this factory utilizes many of the same equipment and techniques of other coffee mills in the area, the attention to detail – from both farmers and the mill itself – is what sets Kiandu apart as one of Kenya’s most recognizable and sought after coffees at auction.
