Producer overview

Gichathaini Factory sources its coffee from the Nyeri region of Kenya, operating within an altitude band of 1700 to 2000 meters. This geographic positioning places its production within a well-known Kenyan coffee-growing area characterized by high elevations. The varietal portfolio spans traditional cultivars alongside newer releases, featuring SL34 and SL28 as dominant varieties, alongside Ruiru 11 and Batian. The process profile leans heavily toward traditional methods while incorporating occasional variations. The catalog lists primarily washed preparations, alongside an experimental natural lot. The catalog footprint includes six total coffees represented across five different roasters, with one lot currently in stock and an average Cherrybook Index across their lots of 54.4. Recent catalog entries feature offerings such as the Thom Bargen Kenya Gichathaini from Revolver Coffee, Kenya Gichathaini AA from Reuben Hills, and an experimental natural preparation from Black and White Coffee Roasters.
