This unique Peaberry Estate Lot comes from the Kakindu Estate in Kiambu, Kenya – a place where tradition meets passion. This 76-hectare farm, once established by British colonialists, is now proudly Kenyan-owned and part of the Sasini Group. It's not just about coffee, but about people, community, and the future.
Sasini ensures fair working conditions, safe housing, and education for its employees' children. With the support of Olam Specialty and dedicated partners, further investments were made in the local elementary school. In particular, a modern computer lab was built to help students learn the skills they need to thrive in an increasingly digital world of work.
Kiambu County, not far from Nairobi, is a paradise for coffee lovers. The volcanic soils, altitudes of up to 2,000 meters, and cool nights allow the coffee cherries to ripen slowly, resulting in a particularly delicate flavor full of character and complexity.
This excellent estate lot is processed with the utmost care—hand-picked, traditionally "fully washed," and sun-dried on African raised beds. Each bean speaks of the dedication of the local people and carries the soul of Kenya within.
With every sip, you not only experience a unique interplay of flavors, but also directly support the community that makes this special coffee possible. We are delighted to be able to roast this excellent SL28 Arabica variety for you in such high quality. On the palate, you can expect a fine taste of Currant, blackberry, peach and rosehip.
