A bright, washed standout coffee from the volcanic highlands of Kenya, available as a limited release.

In the highlands of Kenya, where fertile volcanic soils meet cool mountain air, Tegu Factory produces coffees that are widely recognised for their clarity and vibrancy.

The combination of rich soil, high elevation, and a cool climate slows the maturation of coffee cherries. This extended development period allows sugars and acids to concentrate, resulting in the bright, citrus-forward profiles that have become synonymous with Kenyan coffees.

"A BRIGHT, JUICY HIT OF SUMMER"
Grumpy Mule

This month's coffee comes from the Tegu Factory, set in the fertile foothills between Mount Kenya and the Aberdare Range. Grown in rich volcanic soil at 1,700 metres, this is a fully washed Kenyan crop that is wide awake and full of life.

It is produced under the Tekangu Farmers' Cooperative Society, supporting around 1,200 local smallholders. The altitude brings a cooler climate, slowing the ripening of the cherries. This extended growth period concentrates the sugars and acids, delivering the bright, citrus-forward profile Kenyan coffees are famous for.

After a meticulous hand-sort and initial fermentation, the beans are soaked in clean water for a full 24 hours — a demanding extra step that locks in pure cup clarity and brightness before drying.
