Product Overview
Product Overview

Sure, green coffee is our specialty. But we also roast two delicious single-origin coffees every other week, as well as a limited amount of darker roasts for espresso. Each bag of roasted coffee is weighed to 1 FULL pound, not some chintzy 12 ounce bag! We roast every other week, and all orders must be received by 3:00pm PST the night before in order for us to account for your order in our roast batches.

Origin & Farm Notes

Gititu Factory is part of Aghuti Farmers Cooperative Society (FCS), an FCS that includes a few other stations we buy from: Thageini and Kagumo. It's not the "factory" as we might imagine it. "Factories" are essentially small washing stations aligned with a particular "society" in Kenya, what we would call a "cooperative". We return to the societies who seem to regularly produce some of the best Kenya coffees, and each year we come across societies that are new to us as well, such as Aghuti. This is the AB grade, which refers to the size of the coffee beans that are included. Coffee plants produce a range of bean sizes, from super tiny to quite large, and separating by size helps facilitate a much more uniform roasting experience. In Kenya, the most common top grades are AA, AB, and Peaberry. AA's are the largest and most expensive, whereas AB are only slightly smaller, and often of the same cup caliber as the AA. We found this AB outturn to be a good representation of the unique flavors produced at the Gititu wet mill.
