Our LIMITED RELEASE: Kenya Mumwe Mahiga coffee originates from the foothills of Mt. Kenya in Nyeri, one of Kenya’s renowned coffee-growing regions. Nestled at high elevations with mineral-rich soil, the Mahiga Factory’s 400-member cooperative cultivates beans using methods that have been refined over generations, fostering a deep connection between the land and its produce. The cooperative belongs to the Othaya Farmers Cooperative Society, which has been instrumental in preserving the unique qualities of Kenya’s coffee. Mahiga’s members work collectively to harvest, process, and mill their coffee, ensuring each stage reflects their commitment to quality and tradition.
One of the standout features of Mahiga’s processing is its double-fermentation method—a rare practice that involves soaking the coffee twice under fresh water to achieve remarkable clarity and precision in flavor. Following fermentation, the coffee is soaked for an additional 16 hours, then carefully dried on raised tables over two weeks. This labor-intensive approach, coupled with pristine river water, enhances the coffee’s brightness and balance, producing a cup with clean, vibrant flavors that showcase the region’s terroir. Mahiga’s coffee reflects not just a unique flavor profile but also the collective effort of a cooperative dedicated to sustaining Kenya’s rich coffee heritage.
