Blackcurrant Affairs

Situated in the upper slopes of Nyeri County, Kenya—one of the most revered terroirs in East Africa—the Kamunyaka Wet Mill operates under the umbrella of the Iriaini Farmers’ Cooperative Society Ltd. Together with its sister wet mill, Kiamwangi, Kamunyaka delivers meticulously processed coffees that express the full potential of Kenyan Arabica at high elevation.

With an altitude of approximately 1790 meters above sea level, Kamunyaka benefits from a cooler microclimate and extended cherry maturation, resulting in dense beans and layered cup complexity. The site is known not only for its rigorous washed processing but also for its experimental approaches, including natural (NH) and anaerobic fermentation methods—offering a unique dual-processing profile for specialty buyers.

Our coffee is treated with care

Meticulous Quality

We hope to provide our customers with the best and therefore pay close attention to all factors affecting the quality of our coffee. These include cultivar, growing altitude, climate, soil chemistry, harvesting and processing conditions, drying method, storage conditions, transportation, roasting conditions, grind size, brewing water and brewing recipes.

Highly Curated

Each one of our coffees is carefully selected by our roasting team. Before we buy in bulk, we go through many samples from different specialty coffee estates. Often times we are working with the most renowned coffee producers in the world.

Small Batch Roasting

All our coffee is roasted in our Roastery in Westbahnstraße 13, in Vienna. We roast small batches (10kg max) because we have better control over all the parameters that impact the flavour profile and can therefore better guarantee consistency.

Ethically Sourced

We ensure traceability for all our coffees. Our house Espresso from Nicaragua is directly traded without any middle-men and when we go through a wholesaler, complete transparency is a must. We want to provide our customers with the ability to know where their coffee comes from down to the name of each farmer.
