From The Barn
On the southern slopes of Mount Kenya, the prestigious Kirinyaga district is blessed with rich volcanic soil, abundant fresh water, and elevation of 1600 to 1700 metres. Gakuyu-ini was produced by 1600 smallholders, who contribute cherries to the Thirikwa Farmers Cooperative.
This juicy lot captures everything we love about the Kirinyaga terroir. Bright and juicy in the cup, expect notes of raspberry, plum, and blackcurrant jam. Lively acidity is coupled with deep complexity, with notes of violet and black tea as it cools.
