What is so special about this coffee?

Coffee processed at the Ndaro-Ini factory comes exceptionally mature; this results in a wine-like acidity with citrus and berry flavors, absolutely mind-blowing. The coffee is fermented for 16 to 24 hours under closed shade, then washed with local spring water.

The coffee processed at Ndaro-Ini is rich and flavourful due to the terroir and attention to detail the farmers and the coop provide.

Working with communities for the greater good

The Ndaro-ini Factory was built in 1984 by a group of producers in Karatina who were tired of traveling long distances to deliver their cherries. For this reason, they named the factory "Ndaro-ini," meaning "place of rest" in Kikuyu, one of Kenya's tribal languages. Today, Ndaro-ini is one of 3 factories operated by the Gikanda Farmers Cooperative Society (FCS).

Gikanda FCS has developed a reputation for producing the highest quality by continuing to invest in infrastructure, training, and supporting their member farmers. 1800+ smallholder farmers are delivering to the Ndaro-ini factory. In addition to coffee, the farmers cultivate macadamia and maize and keep dairy cattle.
