Kenya Mount Kirinyaga

This coffee is a blend of exceptional lots grown by smallholder farmers on the fertile slopes of Mount Kenya. Known as Kirinyaga by the Kikuyu—Kenya’s largest ethnic group—Mount Kenya is considered sacred and remains a place where small coffee plots continue to thrive. The region is rich with rivers and waterfalls, and clean water is a source of pride for the communities who call it home.

We treasure our relationships in the global coffee community and invest in projects at origin to support our partners in their commitment to environmental sustainability and social welfare. We also invest in reducing our day-to-day impact, through initiatives like energy-efficient Loring Smart Roasters to reduce carbon emissions per batch by 80%.

As a certified B Corporation, we are a leader in sustainable practices that impact people and the planet. This third-party certification requires us to demonstrate transparency and accountability throughout our supply chain and quantify the impact our business creates for our employees, the community, and the environment. We are proud to be part of this community working together toward one unifying goal: using business as a force for good.

Farm owner Ismael Hassen Aredo competes with the area’s precious metal mines for seasonal workers and pays higher wages to incentivize them to return year after year.
