Kenya Thuti AA – Nyeri (Single Origin)
Coffee beans roasted at Welcome Dose Specialty Coffee, Rosebery
Grown along the mineral-rich slopes of Mt. Kenya, this single origin lot comes from the historic Thuti Factory in the Nyeri region—one of Kenya’s most celebrated coffee-growing zones. Here, the high elevation (1700–1890 masl), cool mountain climate, and volcanic red soils combine to produce coffees of striking clarity, structure, and depth.
Thuti is part of the larger Othaya Farmers’ Cooperative Society, a respected group representing over 14,000 smallholders across 19 factories. But Thuti stands apart—not only as one of the oldest factories in the co-op (established in 1958), but also as one of the smallest. Just 380 active members contribute to this factory, located at the foot of the Karima Forest Reserve, near Othaya town in central Kenya.
Farming here is highly collaborative. Through Farmer Field Schools, members gather regularly to share knowledge on cultivation and processing, refining their techniques season after season. The coffee itself is grown primarily from the traditional Kenyan SL28 and SL34 varieties, with small amounts of Ruiru 11 and Batian. Processing follows Kenya’s signature washed method: fully depulped, fermented, washed clean, and dried slowly on raised beds under the mountain sun.
At Welcome Dose in Rosebery, we’ve roasted this Kenya AA coffee to highlight the vibrant acidity and juicy complexity that Nyeri is known for. Expect bold flavours of red grape, blackcurrant, and cranberry, with a silky texture and wine-like finish.
Whether you’re brewing a V60 or sipping it as a clean, fruit-forward espresso, this coffee captures everything we love about Kenya’s high-altitude terroir—refined, expressive, and endlessly drinkable.
