Coffee Information
Kamoini is one of several coffees from Othaya Farmer's Cooperative Society (FCS), an FCS that includes an impressive amount of wet mills, 18 in all, dating back to the late 1950s. 
 
Kamoini Factory sits at 1825 meters above sea level, right along the Ichamama River, which is fed from the Karima forest above. "Factories" are essentially small washing stations aligned with a particular "society" in Kenya, what we would call a "cooperative". 
 
Being one of the older Kenya FCS, we are well aware of the quality coming out of Othaya, and have had the good fortune to buy a few stellar lots the past two years.
 
This lot appears to be a mix of AA and AB outturn, beans between 15 and 19 screen.
​
Kamoini boasts intense aromatics, caramelized sugar and pineapple, cooked fruit, and layers of raw sugars. The wet grounds are so sweet, and a mixture of dried stone fruits (apricot and nectarine) and syrupy sweetness give the impression of pastries with fruit fillings, especially when breaking through the crust where you're greeted with a perfumed sweetness in the steam.
