Located in East Africa, "Kenya" is one of the major coffee-producing countries, with about six million people nationwide engaged in the coffee industry, mostly in the form of small farmers and cooperatives.

Kenya's coffee trees are mostly grown at altitudes of 1400-2000 meters, with growing regions including Ruiri, Thika, Kirinyaga, Mt. Kenya West, Nyeri, Kiambu, and Muranga, primarily on the foothills of Mt. Kenya and Aberdare.

Many coffee-producing regions in Kenya strive to preserve native forest ecosystems, protect natural gene banks, support the reproduction of wild coffee varieties, and nurture diverse coffee trees.

In 1930, Kenya's unique varieties SL28 and SL34, cultivated and named by the "Scott Laboratories" laboratory, were born in such a favorable environment. According to SL laboratory botanists, SL28 and SL34 are genetic variants.

Among them, SL28 has mixed heritage from French missionaries, Mocha, and Yemen Typica. The original goal of cultivating SL28 was to hope for mass production of coffee beans that combine high quality with resistance to pests and diseases.

Although SL28's yield later did not meet the expected large quantities, its copper-colored leaves and broad bean-shaped beans have wonderful sweetness, balance, and complex and varied flavors, as well as prominent citrus and dark plum characteristics.

SL34 has similar flavors to SL28, but besides its complex and varied acidity and wonderful sweet finish, it has a heavier, richer, and cleaner mouthfeel than SL28.

SL34 has heritage from French missionaries, Bourbon, and more Typica bloodlines. The bean appearance is similar to SL28, but it can better adapt to sudden heavy rains.

It is these two important varieties that lead us to understand the unique Kenyan style: strong and rich fruit acidity, rich mouthfeel, and beautiful balance.
