We sourced this coffee through Falcon Coffee who had the following to share.

The Karimikui factory is situated in Ngairiama, within the Gichugu division of Kirinyaga district, Central Province. It is one of the three factories that constitute the esteemed Rungeto Farmers Coop Society, alongside Kiangoi and Kii.

Established in 1953, the Rungeto Farmers Coop Society has grown to include approximately 3507 dedicated members. Each smallholder member is allocated around a hectare of land for cultivating coffee alongside vegetable crops to support their families.

The region surrounding Karimikui factory boasts fertile and nutrient-rich red volcanic soil, which provides an ideal foundation for coffee growth. The altitudes range between 1700 and 1900 meters above sea level, ensuring favorable conditions for coffee cultivation. Additionally, the area receives an annual rainfall ranging from 1600 to 1900mm, further enhancing the coffee-growing environment.

The combination of fertile soil, high altitudes, and ample rainfall contribute to the unique terroir of the Karimikui factory's coffee, ultimately shaping its distinct flavors and characteristics. The smallholder farmers within the cooperative take pride in their meticulous cultivation practices, which harness the natural resources of the region to produce exceptional coffees.
