  • If you've followed us for a minute, you know we feel Nyeri is a special, special coffee-growing region. We just couldn't pick a coffee from one farm so this excellent offering is a blend from a number of different factories throughout Nyeri. Coined a "regional select" coffee (Uteuzi Jimbo in Swahili), this cup is a great example of flavors created by the microclimate in Nyeri: wind patterns, soil quality, sunlight, elevation and other factors combine to create the distinctive profile. Mango, grapefruit, black currant and oh so sweet and syrupy. If you enjoyed our recent Kenyan cups, this will be right up your alley.
