The Story

The Kii washing station is part of the Rung’eto Farmers Co-Operative Society, serving more than 1,000 small scale coffee growers with 3 washing stations dotted across Kirinyaga county. Member farmers are educated and incentivized to pick deep red ripe cherries which are delivered and sorted on the same day. Kenya’s infamous washed process is tracked with meticulous quality control. Depulped coffee is moved in clean water to fermentation tanks to break down any remaining cherry mucilage. Washing channels remove these layers and sort the coffee again with beautifully clean coffee making it out the raised drying beds.

Our ambition is to continue sourcing, roasting and crafting the finest coffees from the heart of East London.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What date will my coffee be roasted?

    We aim to ship our coffee as fresh as possible, however you may receive coffee roasted up to 7 days prior to the shipping date.

  • What grind type should I choose?

    We offer multiple grind options from Cafetiere to Espresso and everything between. Our domestic espresso grind is slightly coarser and is perfect for home espresso machines, such as DeLonghi or Sage whereas the commercial espresso grind is better suited to commercial machines like La Marzocco or Sanremo. If you’re not sure what grind to choose please get in touch with our team at admin@climpsonandsons to see how they can help. Remember, pre-ground coffee is not an exact science and is only one of many brewing variables.

  • Can I order 1kg of coffee?

    This is not something we currently offer but why not consider helping us reduce packaging by ordering a 2kg bag instead? Wholebean coffee has a longer shelf life than you might think, up to 3 months!
