Coffee entered Kenya in the 19th century, when Ethiopian coffee drinks were imported into Kenya through southern Yemen. But it was not until the early 20th century that the Bourbon Coffee Tree was created by the St. Austen Mission (St). Austin Mission) is introduced.

Kenyan coffee is mostly grown at an altitude of 1500 to 2100 meters and is harvested twice a year. To ensure that only ripe berries are picked, people must tour the forest about seven times. Kenyan coffee is grown by small farmers. After they harvest the coffee, they first send the fresh coffee beans to the cooperative cleaning station. The washing station sends the dried coffee to the cooperative in the form of "parchment coffee beans" (that is, coffee beans covered with endocarp) to the cooperative ("parchment coffee beans" is the last state of coffee beans before peeling). All the coffees are collected together, and growers charge an average price according to their actual quality. This trading method generally works well and is fair to both growers and consumers.

The Kenyan government takes the coffee industry very seriously, where it is illegal to cut down or destroy coffee trees. The buyers of Kenyan coffee are world-class buyers of quality coffee, and no country can grow, produce and sell coffee continuously like Kenya. All coffee beans are first acquired by the CBK (coffee Board of Kaeya), where they are identified, rated, and then sold at weekly auctions, where they are no longer graded. Kenya Coffee Council only acts as an agent, collecting coffee samples and distributing them to buyers so that they can determine the price and quality. The auction in Nairobi is for private exporters, and the Kenya Coffee Commission pays growers a price below the market price. the best coffee is bean-shaped berry coffee (PB), followed by AA++, AA+, AA, AB and so on. Fine coffee is shiny, delicious and slightly alcoholic
