  • Coffee Variety & Processing

    During harvest season, smallholder farmers deliver ripe coffee cherries of the SL28, SL34, Ruiru 11 & Batian varieties to Tegu for processing. The coffees are sorted to ensure quality before de-pulping and further processing. After a 16-24 hour fermentation, the coffees are washed and soaked (second wash) in separate tanks, helping to develop the recognizable crisp acidity usually found in high-quality Kenyan coffees. Finally, the coffee is shade dried on raised drying beds and manually rotated every few hours.

  • About Tekangu & Tegu

    The Tegu factory is part of the Tekangu FCS (Farmers Cooperative Society) in central Kenya. “Tegu” translates to "low place”, which comes from the name of a river nearby that’s famous for its fertile land in agricultural production. Tekangu FCS is currently made up of 1200 member farmers, each with around 100 trees.
