Kamonini

This exceptional Kenyan coffee is sourced from smallholders and single-family farms in Nyeri County and processed at Kamoini Factory. Kamoini is one of 19 small wet mills in the area belonging the Othaya Farmers’ Cooperative Society. This co-op registered in 1956 with 250 farmer members, and membership is closer to 15,000!

Othaya Co-op centers around strong social unity, holistic business management, and commitment to quality at all points of the supply chain. It has both a farm store and nursery for members, and offers farm management workshops, training for managers, input, equipment and coffee seedlings. Most farmers near Kamoini grow their coffee on an average of half an acre, often beneath the shade of banana and macadamia trees.

The Society is Fair-Trade certified, which is helping in penetrating the world’s markets, and as a result benefiting the community more. The community in this region relies on agriculture as the main source of livelihood.

The Kamoini factory is located along the Ichamama River, whose source is the Karima Forest, where the Wacheke Kamoini/ Witima Kamoini roads intersect. Nyeri County is characterised by cool temperatures and fertile central highlands, situated at the base of the Aberdare (Nyandarua) mountain range, which forms part of the eastern end of the Great Rift Valley and the western slopes of Mount Kenya.

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.
