Sourcing

This lot comes from Kateshi Estate, revitalized by Covoya Coffee Importers in 2012 and now a hub for regional smallholder support. The estate sets the standard not only for quality but for community impact—employing women in nontraditional roles, providing clean water to over 20,000 people, funding schools, and operating a free health clinic. The coffee is fully washed and patio-dried in parchment to preserve clarity and brightness in the cup.

Roasting

Roasted to a medium level to emphasize structure and sweetness, this coffee showcases tasting notes of cashew, cherry, chamomile, and Meyer lemon. A juicy body and gentle floral acidity make it ideal for filter brews—elevated and expressive without being fussy.
