Mel Coffee KENYA Kiamabara AA - Light

Sale price HK$220.00

The Kiamabara coffee factory, located near Karatina in the Neri district, belongs to the Mugaga Cooperative. Built in the 1980s, the factory processes coffee cherries from nearby coffee farms. The cherries delivered to the factory are first peeled and then soaked in the circulating water of the nearby King's River. After peeling, the cherries undergo fermentation overnight before being soaked again in the circulating water.

Depending on the weather, temperature, and processing volume, coffee cherries are dried on African-style drying beds for 7 to 15 days until they reach the appropriate moisture content. The factory is committed to strictly adhering to traditional Kenyan processing techniques.

Their goal is to secure higher prices for producers, provide consumers with high-quality coffee, and promote the sustainable development of the coffee industry. They believe that improving farmers' agricultural skills is paramount. With the support of coffee management service companies, they are increasing coffee production through various measures, including agricultural training, seminars, and updating agricultural manuals distributed to farmers. We also help farmers raise funds to pay for their children's education and invest in their land, laying the foundation for their hard work.

About Mel Coffee Roasters

Located in Nishi-ku Shinmachi, just a few minutes' walk from Osaka's Shinsaibashi, you can already smell the aroma of coffee as you step onto the street. There is a coffee shop here that is only over 100 square feet. It was selected as the 3rd place in "The 50 Best Coffee Shops In The World" and the 2nd place in "The 50 Best Coffee Shops in Asia" by the internationally renowned travel website Big 7 Travel. A small shop called Mel Coffee Roasters. There are no seats in the store, only refurbished 1968 Probat L5 and 1960 UG15 roasters and a bar. If you want to come here and enjoy a cup of high-quality coffee, you can only sit on the two long benches outside the door to check in and taste it. However, although there are few seats, there is definitely a lot of quality and human touch!
Foreign travel website Big 7 Travel mentioned that Mel’s coffee has a roasted flavor from Melbourne... Once you try its coffee, you are destined to be unable to live without it in your life, because this is the best coffee destination in Asia. Mel’s boss Masahiko Fumimoto and his wife both worked in Melbourne, Australia. When Masahiko Fumimoto was living in Australia, he was amazed by a cup of latte from Brother Baba Budan, a famous store in Melbourne. The fragrant taste made him unforgettable, and he was deeply attracted by the coffee. Attracted by everything, I entered the field of coffee.
