ORIGIN JOURNAL

Kenya

Highland traditions. Distinct coffee grades.

Kenya's coffee trade combines highland growing regions with established grading and processing practices. Grade describes a trade classification, not a promise of a specific acidity, flavour or quality score.

Growing regions

Nyeri, Kirinyaga, Murang'a and the wider Mount Kenya growing area are established coffee regions. Individual offer origins and traceability require supplier documentation.

Varietal guide

SL28 and SL34 are established selections associated with Kenyan coffee cultivation. Batian and Ruiru 11 were developed with disease resistance in mind; K7 is another established Kenyan variety. These are educational descriptions, not confirmed varietals of the current lots.

Processing traditions

Washed coffees are prominent in Kenya's export trade; natural offerings also occur. AA, AB and PB grades do not by themselves identify a processing method or cup profile.

Our sourcing model

CAAFRAL coordinates Kenyan sourcing against supplier offers and origin-specific grades. FOB Mombasa is shown only where supported by the relevant offer; onward freight and delivery require separate confirmation.

Harvest windows, current availability, quality and certifications are shared only when verified for the selected lot. This origin guide is educational and separate from supplier quotations.
