PROFILE: Vibrant and FruityWITH NOTES OF Apricot, Raspberry, HoneyROAST: Light Roast For Filter Brewing Download the Kii, Kenya Transparency Report ABOUT The Kii factory is operated by the Rungeto Farmers Cooperative Society (F.C.S.) and serves approximately 1,215 active farmer members. Farmers in this region began planting coffee in 1953, and the average farmer has about 400 coffee trees on an area of about 1/3rd of a hectare. The cooperative society operates three mills‚ Kii, Karimikui, and Kiangoi‚ and is managed by an elected board of seven members, two from each factory catchment. The co-op has 25 permanent staff members, overseen by a secretary manager. The co-op is partnered with the marketing agent Sustainable Management Services Limited and is implementing a coffee-quality improvement project together intending to raise both cup and yield. Members deliver cherry to the factory as soon as it is picked, and it’s depulped after sorting and separating. The coffee is then fermented (typically overnight) before being washed with fresh river water, and then dried in full sun. Undeniably vibrant, fruity, and well structured, Kii is back for a second year. Those who enjoy the classic flavours of Kenya will be right at home with this AA lot, which we have again selected for its high cup quality. We’re roasting Kii AA for filter to highlight complex flavours & acidity. We recommend a coarse grind setting and a higher-than-usual coffee-to-water ratio, as Kenyan coffees tend to be extremely soluble, resulting in a lack of clarity when brewed according to a standard recipe.
