Kenya Nyeri Thagrini Peaberry Farm Introduction

Located in East Africa, Kenya is one of the major coffee-producing countries, with approximately six million people engaged in the coffee industry nationwide, mostly in the form of small farmers and cooperatives. Kenyan coffee trees are predominantly grown at altitudes between 1,400-2,000 meters, with growing regions including Ruiri, Thika, Kirinyaga, Mt. Kenya West, Nyeri, Kiambu, and Muranga. The foothills of Mt. Kenya and Aberdare are the main areas. Many regions in Kenya strive to preserve native forest ecosystems, protect natural gene banks, support the propagation of wild coffee varieties, and nurture diverse coffee trees.

In the early 20th century, French and British missionaries and researchers selected and bred direct descendants of Bourbon in Kenya. Over the past century, these have adapted to Kenya's high-phosphate soil, nurturing the unique acidic aroma of Kenyan beans, distinct from Bourbon beans in Central and South America. This Kenyan native variety was created in 1930 by Scott Laboratories (SL for short). Agronomists wanted to find a Bourbon variety resistant to diseases and pests with high yields, and through experiments obtained SL28. SL28 is a genetic variant with mixed ancestry from French missionaries, Mocha, and Yemeni Typica. The original goal of breeding SL28 was to mass-produce coffee beans that were both high-quality and disease-resistant. Although SL28's yield later turned out to be not as high as expected, its copper-colored leaves and broad bean shape offer wonderful sweetness, balance, and complex, varied flavors, along with significant citrus and black plum characteristics. This important variety introduces us to the unique Kenyan style: strong, rich fruit acidity, full body, and beautiful balance. Kenya AA is one of these.

SL28 is a delicious variety suitable for cultivation in mid-to-high altitude areas with limited leaf rust disease, yielding about 1.8 tons of green beans per hectare. Only when tasting the charming berry-like acidity can one truly appreciate Kenya's national treasure.

Region Introduction

This green bean comes from the Thagrini Processing Station in Nyeri, produced by surrounding family farms. On a 0.5-acre (approximately 2,023 square meters) plot of land, about 250 coffee trees are planted. Nyeri has historically been a classic coffee-producing region in Kenya, backed by Mount Kenya and possessing an excellent environment suitable for coffee cultivation. About 65% of Kenyan coffee comes from small-scale farmers, while about 35% comes from large farms.
