Kenya Mara Single Origin Coffee Beans (250g)

Mara Coffee was created in 2019. As coffee production is
relatively new in this area, the farm was set up from the
ground. This area is very favourable for coffee growing, however
historically the local tribe, the Masai people, have been pastoral
nomads. The farm is near the town of Lolgorien and only a
couple of kilometers away from the Masai Mara.

Currently the farm is processing most of their coffee as natural.
For this process, they are fermenting the cherry in barrels for
4 days and then drying it on raised beds. Before putting the
cherries inside the barrels, it is carefully handpicked in order
to remove the defective cherries. The coffee is then
handpicked a second time during the dried process.

The farm has established a nursery in order to have a stable
supply of seedlings. Moreover they have started handing out
seedlings to surrounding farmers, in order to offer them a
stable cash crop and increase coffee production in the area.
