Kayu Coffee Factory | Murang'a, Kenya - Light Roast

The Kayu Coffee Factory, established in 1964, brings together 1,191 smallholder farmers who tend 1–2 hectare plots. With a washed process and seasonal oversight promoting best practices like macadamia intercropping, this coffee is a testament to tradition, resilience, and the hope that farming can still provide a future for families in a rapidly changing region.

This light roast from Murang’a, Kenya delivers a bright, refreshing profile of lemonade and sweet tea, rounded by light brown sugar. Grown at 1650 meters above sea level in volcanic red soil, the Kayu AA lot thrives in rich, temperate conditions between Kenya’s tea zones and indigenous forests, producing exceptionally clean, high-acidity coffees.

New Light farms are rotating light roasted East African farms. Once a lot sells out, we switch.

Best washed coffee…period

Guys…you must purchase this coffee today! If you are a fan of light roast washed coffees, this one is PERFECT. I normally am a natural process guy who has struggled with finding washed coffees that I enjoy. Most are a little dull or lack flavor. This one does the opposite! It BURSTS with citrus flavors and on the back end has tea like notes. Truly amazing and an everyday coffee. My first time drinking it, I had 2 10 oz cups because I liked it so much! 10/10 friends, go buy this today!

Lastly, the customer service is 11/10! I have spent my entire career in customer service and they responded quickly, went ABOVE and beyond and I they actually cared to meet my needs (not theirs).

Decent

Customer service and attention to customers far surpassed my expectations. Had an issue with an order and it was resolved in an incredible way.

The coffee is solid, especially the light roast. Please try a bag. Seems to be a small roaster that truly cares about coffee and their customers.

Would highly recommend people try this roaster out. Very impressed.
