Thunguri Natural - Kamavindi Coffee - Natural Kenya 120g

I chatted with my friends Peter and Ringa at Kamavindi Coffee about our goals when sourcing coffees. We aligned strongly on shedding light on producers, mills and regions that deserve more attention. This was one of the coffees the 3 coffee samples they sent me to begin our relationship, all of which I ended up contracting.

It is a pleasure and a truly full circle moment to be able to work directly with Kamavindi Coffee; early in my career as a barista I was exposed to their work, story and ethos and I was completely inspired by them. I am even more humbled and inspired that our philosphies align so closely and I cannot wait to continue our work together.
