Kenya is known for growing some of the most intense coffees in the world. The coffees are rich in fruity acidity while maintaining a heavy body some people believe this is drawn from the red volcanic soils surrounding mount Kenya. The total area under the coffee cultivation in Kenya is estimated at 16,000 hectares. Plantations make up about one third of the area, however, the largest part of the land is used by smallholder farmers who assign themselves to cooperatives. Karani is an association of smallholders who produce high grown top quality coffee in the central highlands of Kenya. It is located in the Kirinyaga district just south of the equator on the southern slopes of Mt Kenya.
Due to its location on the windward of the volcano. Coffee farmers in this area benefit from the humid climate throughout the year. There are two distinct rainfall seasons with long rains from March to May and short rains from October to November resulting in an equitorial climate. Taking advantage of the soils high fertility the farmers of the Karani association jointly produce around 20 tons of coffee per year.
After harvesting only the ripest cherries between October and January, the coffee is wet processed in a central pulpery owned by the village society. Immediately after the cherries are delivered, they are hand sorted, pulped, and fermented. After the fermentation process the coffee is washed, graded, and spread onto raised beds for sun drying, also known as African beds. During the drying period all defective beans are removed by hand. Once they are fully dried the beans appear as a typical bourbon - round beans with a blueish green colour.
