The Kirinyaga district sits on the southern slopes of Mount Kenya. It is home to some of the most fertile soils of the country due to the volcanic activity of the region.
The name Kirinyaga originates from the language of the local Kikuyu people and means “The crest of whiteness”.
It refers to the summit of Mount Kenya, which can be admired from the high-altitude coffee farms in Kirinyaga. This lot is made from the coffees from three smallholder cooperatives: Baragwi, Kabare and Rung’Eto.
The flowering takes place between February and April and the harvest between October and January.
Kenya Kirinyaga AB beans showcase the region's signature processing excellence through full-wash fermentation—a 18–24 hour water soak followed by meticulous mucilage removal and raised-bed drying. This rigorous method yields the clean, vibrant cup profile Kenyan coffees are renowned for. The "AB" designation indicates bean size; whilst AA commands premium pricing, AB delivers comparable complexity and quality. Kirinyaga's terroir produces standout varietals including SL28 and SL34, prized for their intense fruity notes and bright acidity. These coffees are distinguished by layered, nuanced flavour that reflects both altitude and careful cultivation practices.

Price Match
We Aim to Match, But Conditions Apply!
We strive to offer the most competitive prices in Australia for all your coffee brewing needs. While we're confident in our pricing, we're human, and occasionally, a competitor might slip a lower price past our radar. That's where you come in! If you spot a better deal elsewhere, we'll gladly match it, with some fair conditions to ensure a level playing field.
Here's the scoop:
- Aussie rivals only: The competitor must be an Australian retailer with prices in AUD and shipping from within our great nation.
- Brand buddies: They must be an authorised retailer of the specific brand you're eyeing.
- Twinsies, please: The product needs to be an exact match, brand new in its box, and readily available.
- Delivery included: We'll factor in the competitor's delivery cost for an apples-to-apples comparison.
Now, for some exceptions, where our price-matching magic might not work:
- Cashback & discounts: We can't match deals involving cashback offers or special discount coupons.
- Bulk buys: Commercial quantity pricing is a different beast, so we won't match those either.
- Clearance frenzy: Stock liquidation sales are temporary deals, and we can't keep up with their ever-changing prices.
- History can't be rewritten: We can't adjust past orders that have already been processed.
- Auction arena: Prices from auction sites like eBay or Catch of the Day aren't eligible.
The rare exception:
In extraordinary situations, we might not be able to match a competitor's price exactly. But don't worry, we'll still offer you the best possible price we can, because your coffee happiness matters to us!
So, there you have it! With these guidelines in mind, feel free to share any lower prices you find, and let's brew up some fair competition!
