Sourcing
A journey to Kenya’s vibrant coffee region
Baragwi PB is a collaborative creation of smallholder farmers from the Baragwi Cooperative Farmers society in Kirinyaga, and Nordic Approach, our trusted partner in sourcing exceptional coffees. These farmers, who cultivate diverse crops alongside coffee, take great pride in their coffee production. The wet mills in the region consistently produce high-quality coffee, attracting farmers with premium prices.
In partnership with Nordic Approach, we carefully select the Baragwi lot to meet our standards for taste and sustainability. The coffee cherries undergo a meticulous process at the factory. After harvest, they undergo 16-24 hours of dry fermentation under closed shade for optimal flavor development. The cherries are then washed and graded in channels to select the finest beans. To enhance their characteristics, the beans are soaked in clean water for 16-18 hours, allowing them to absorb moisture and develop a bright and delightful sweetness.

Peaberry
The magic of peaberries
Baragwi PB stands out as an extraordinary coffee due to its inclusion of peaberries, a unique and coveted type of coffee bean. Peaberries are a rare occurrence, accounting for only 5% of the world’s coffee production. These remarkable beans develop when a coffee cherry produces a single seed instead of the usual two, resulting in a distinctively shaped bean. Due to their scarcity and special characteristics, pea berries are carefully hand-sorted from the rest of the cherries, making them highly sought after. Renowned for their denser structure, peaberries often exhibit heightened sweetness, body, and overall flavor intensity.
