About The Producer
The Kirimahiga Factory is one of three standout producers that make up the New Kiriti Farmers Cooperative Society (FCS). The FCS was formally established in 1988, bringing together generations of smallholder farmers with a shared commitment to quality. Currently, Kirimahiga proudly serves a community of 1,595 registered farmers, all working to produce exceptional coffees.
Processing
Select cherries are de-pulped using a disc pulping machine to carefully remove the skin and pulp. The cherries are then graded before undergoing a traditional fermentation process for 16 to 24 hours After fermentation, the parchment coffee is thoroughly washed and passed through more grading channels. A period of soaking (second wash) occurs shortly after in fresh water from nearby streams for 16 to 18 hours. In the final stage, the coffees are sun dried for up to 21 days on raised drying beds.
Variety
SL-28 is among the most well-known and well-regarded varieties of Africa. It has consequently spread from Kenya, where it was originally selected in the 1930s, to other parts of Africa (it is important in Arabica-growing regions of Uganda, in particular) and now to Latin America. The variety is suited for medium to high altitudes and shows resistance to drought, but is susceptible to the major diseases of coffee. SL28 is notable for its rusticity—a quality meaning that it can be left untended for years or even decades at a time, and then return to successful production. There are SL-28 trees in many parts of Kenya that are 60-80 years old and still productive. Ruiru is a variety that is resistant to coffee leaf rust and coffee berry disease. This variety was created at the Coffee Research Institute (CRI) in Ruiru, Kenya.
