Gatomboya Single Origin is a lively and adventurous cup, boasting high acidity and a full-bodied richness. From bright, zesty notes of blood orange to juicy sweet green grapes, rounded out with a hint of smooth vanilla, this coffee carries a vibrant and dynamic flavour profile that will captivate your senses.
Artisanal Processing for Exceptional Quality
These Gatomboya beans are fully washed, helping bring out its bright acidity and clean fruit notes. After being carefully hand-picked, the cherries are pulped using a traditional disc pulper, fermented overnight, and then meticulously washed and dried on raised tables for 7 to 15 days. This artisanal attention to detail at every stage ensures that only the very best beans make it to your cup, capturing the true essence of Kenyan coffee.
From Community to Cup
The name “Gatomboya” means “swamp” in Kikuyu, a nod to the fertile land that supports both arrow roots and some of the best coffee cherries in the region. This single origin comes from about 698 smallholder farmers who bring their cherries to the Gatomboya factory, which has been supporting its members since 1987. The factory is partnered with Coffee Management Services (CMS) to ensure a focus on sustainability and generous support for farmers, including pre-financing for school fees, emergency funds, and continued education and training, forming a community that thrives on ethical practices.
