The Kamwangi factory sits in the town of Kirinyaga, east of Nyeri and on the slopes of Mt. Kenya between the other coffee regions of Karatina and Embu.
Brewed on filter, Kamwangi AA is medium bodied with a bright acidity. Our test roast had flavours of plum and stewed fruit that you should taste across any method but which are strongest on V60.
This coffee was harvested through the winter of 2013-14.

We transparently share all the information about each coffee lot (territory of origin, producer, variety, processing method, importer, quality grade) on each coffee page. This includes blend components for our espresso blends.
We take quality sourcing very seriously, so being fully transparent about our coffee is a way to honour everyone’s efforts along the production and gain the trust of ethical-minded consumers.
We roast our single origins using omni medium/light profiles. (This means you can use it for pour over and espresso brewing, no need to buy different bean bags with specific roast styles.)
We roast our espresso blends using darker profiles.
The definitions and references to specialty coffee are changing.
Historically, and as most people think of it these days, specialty coffee is Arabica beans that score over 80 in the old Specialty Coffee Association point scale. Today, the SCA refers to specialty coffee as “a coffee or coffee experience that is recognized for its distinctive attributes, resulting in a higher value within the marketplace.”
Absolutely. Our coffee subscription lets you get your favourite beans (for filter and espresso, black or milk drinks) delivered regularly for free and with no lock-in periods.
