The Gatomboya cooperative found gold and sold it to us as coffee. Usually, Kenyan coffees are sold through auctions in Nairobi, but this year, we went straight to the source. To get this outstanding coffee, we negotiated directly with the Thika Coffee Mill, a well-known privately owned mill that has a reputation for upholding fair prices and excellent quality. We paid 20% over Fair Trade price for this coffee, and it's well worth it. This is a beautiful Kenyan coffee, one of the best we've ever tasted: bright balanced acidity, tropical fruit character, and slick body.
