Kenya Kianderi

Kianderi is a co-operative of coffee producers located in the Kirinyaga district south of mount Kenya. We’ve been buying coffee from them since 2016 and this year we had to purchase and import the coffee entirely ourselves which presented a few interesting challenges! Kianderi is a washing station linked to the larger Inoi co-operative. About 500 coffee producing farmers delivery their cherry to the washing station and are paid cash on delivery. Kenya coffee is usually produced by small hold farmers often with just a few hundred trees who will harvest from their trees every few days and deliver to a centralized collection point or washing station for processing.
