Description

The Rianjagi cooperative represents more than 2,500 member farmers in Embu County, Kenya. This is our first Kenyan offering in several years and we’re excited to be working with Rockbern Coffee, a relatively new exporter founded by third-generation coffee producer Peter Muchiri.

This lot carries all the signatures of an excellent Kenyan coffee. Notes of blackberry, clementine, pomegranate, and golden raisin meet subtle tones of molasses and ginger in a high clarity, dynamic cup.

The Rianjagi Factory is located in Embu County on the southeastern side of Mt. Kenya. The factory, as washing stations are known in Kenya, belongs to the Rianjagi Farmer’s Cooperative Society, whose membership consists of more than 2,500 local farmers.
