The description of the flavor characteristics of Kenya Mutika and the introduction of Mutika

[about Mutheka processing plant]

The Mutheka Cooperative, founded in 2000 in Nyeri in central Kenya, has seven different processing stations where members deliver their harvested coffee cherries for processing. We always buy coffee at Nyeri because it is recognized as the best producing area, and after tasting thousands of local coffees, Chorongi has always been one of our favorite choices every year.

Traditionally, Nyeri farmers continue to plant SL28 and SL34 varieties, but due to the serious situation of leaf rust and berry disease, cooperatives began to encourage farmers to plant more disease-resistant Ruiru11 varieties, and in recent years also planted a new variety Batian with better flavor. Chorongi has distributed / sold Batian seedlings to its members in the past five years, which means that there may be more opportunities to taste this coffee in the future. So far, the change of varieties has no significant negative effect on the quality of coffee. Kenyan coffee still has strong fruit tone and good flavor.
