About Ngugu-ini | Kenya
Ngugu-ini Factory is part of the Kibirigwi Cooperative Society established in 1958 and currently has 1200 members. This is a stunning AA extended ferment microlot. After delivery the cherry was pulped and dry fermented for 18 hours before being washed and graded in channels. The coffee was then moved to raised tables for sun drying.
We love the bright, distinctive tasting notes that include blackcurrant, rhubarb and brown sugar. -

We clean up after ourselves.
Ecommerce deliveries have a carbon footprint. That's why we support verified projects that remove carbon from the air.
Every delivery’s carbon footprint is calculated based on weight, shipping method, and distance traveled. We neutralize these emissions by purchasing verified carbon removal credits from groundbreaking projects. When you add a contribution to your order, 100% of that money is used to pay for additional carbon removal.


With your purchase, you’ll join a community of proactive merchants and customers dedicated to a sustainable future. Together, we've removed emissions for over 53 million deliveries and removed over 39 thousand tonnes of carbon.
We work with a network of pioneering carbon removal companies that have been vetted by the commerce platform Shopify.


Delicious
I really enjoy Kenyan coffee and this was not an exception. However, I did find to make coffee to my taste using a V60, the ratio was increased from the usual 60g/l to 65g/l. This gave a more intense taste to the coffee.

Nice coffee but without "wow". Little bitter, little acidic
