Kenya AB

Please note: All our single origin coffees are roasted to order, what this means is we will roast your single origin order on the next work day and will be shipped out the following work day. If you require it ground ie for plunger, then we would rest the coffee beans for a few days before grinding and shipping.

A great coffee from our friends at John Burton.

There are more than 6 million people working in the coffee growing regions of Kenya. Coffee lots are bought on the Nairobi Coffee Exchange auction, which is controlled by the Kenyan Board of Coffee.

About 800,000 smallholder farmers are affiliated to 500 cooperative societies in the country and 4000 plantations are involved in coffee production which draw the livelihood from coffee earnings.

Here at Little Things Micro-Roastery our coffee is air roasted to give a cleaner taste and smoother finish. We have two roast styles to choose from, an espresso focused roast giving more body to the coffee and a filter focused roast giving more acidity to the coffee.

We would love any feedback to help fine tune our recipe as we roast in small batches.
