Kabingara

Summary

Kabingara is a Kenyan coffee from the Kirinyaga region, grown at 1750 meters on the southern slopes of Mount Kenya. Produced by smallholder farmers of the Karithathi Farmers' Cooperative Society, approximately 800 members deliver their harvest to the Kabingara processing station. The coffee consists of SL28, SL34, Ruiru 11, and Batian varieties. It undergoes a washed processing method with spontaneous fermentation: cherries are sorted, machine-pulped, fermented overnight, washed, and dried for 9-13 days. The sensory profile is characterized by blackcurrant, grapefruit, and mandarin notes. Recommended for espresso preparation.
