Introduction of processing plant

The Kiangombe factory is 2km from the town of Kimunye in Kirinaga, named after the Kikuyu, Kenya's largest minority group, because there was a large dairy market in the village in the early days.

The Kiangombe factory was built in 1998 and belongs to the Karabe cooperative. The cooperative has more than 6, 000 members, of which the Kiangombe factory is registered with more than 600 small farmers.

The water source for washing treatment at the Kiangombe plant comes from the Mukengeria River, which is then dried on a raised tanning bed for about 20 days according to weather conditions.

Production area introduction

Kirinaga Kirinyaga

Kirinyaga is located on the hillside of Mount Kenya, near Nyeri, famous for its strong flavor, rich layers and solid taste of coffee, and Nyeri is recognized as the two best producing areas in Kenya. Most of the producers in this area are small coffee farmers who join the cooperative, while the cooperative plays an integrated role in providing washing plants, while coffee farmers send coffee cherries to the co-operative's processing plant for raw bean processing.

"Kirinaga". It is the name of Mount Mount Kenya, the highest mountain in Kenya and the second highest in Africa. It is also the local name of Mount Kenya.

The reason why Europeans call it "Mount Kenya" is said to be unable to imitate the local pronunciation "kirinyaga" very well.

Kirinyaga comes from the Kikuyu, which means "white mountain" and is thought to be the place of the gods. The Kikuyu are the most populous people in Kenya, accounting for 1/5 of the total population.

SL-28 and SL-34 are the two most respected varieties produced by the Scott laboratory in Kenya in the 1930s. The Scott Laboratory no longer exists, but it is now the National Agricultural Laboratory and part of the Kenyan Agricultural and Animal Husbandry Research Organization. Both varieties are bourbon-derived varieties, although from different pedigrees: SL-28 was developed from a drought-resistant variety originally planted in Tanganyika, which is part of modern Tanzania; it is generally considered to be of the highest quality but less productive than other commercial Arabica varieties. SL-34 is a variety originally found near Kabete and performs well at low elevations. Both SL variants showed bronze tender leaves.
