We’re thrilled to share this beautifully expressive coffee from Charles Mutwiri’s farm in Meru County, Kenya. Grown at 1700 meters on rich red volcanic soil, this light roast celebrates the vibrant, natural flavors of the SL28, Ruiru 11, and Batian varietals. Expect bright, lively notes of citrus balanced with the comforting warmth of graham cracker and a smooth cocoa finish — a cup that honors both the biodiversity of Meru and the spirit of the farmer behind it. As always, our roasting approach is designed to let the bean's natural qualities shine, preserving the unique character shaped by Charles’s sustainable, organic farming methods.
Charles Mutwiri’s story is woven into every cup of this coffee. A lifelong farmer, Charles built his operation from 150 coffee bushes to a thriving, independent 30,000-bush farm and processing facility. Defying economic hardships and shifting market trends, he turned to organic practices, prioritizing soil health and ecosystem balance without compromising quality. By partnering directly with Jamii Coffee, Charles ensures each bean is carefully harvested, double-washed, and dried to perfection — a testament to his relentless pursuit of excellence. This coffee is more than a drink; it’s a reflection of resilience, innovation, and the deeply rooted craft of Kenyan coffee farming.
This coffee is versatile and works well with all brewing methods.
