The combination of SL28 and SL34 varieties, clay soil, high altitudes, and meticulous processing can yield coffees that are big and complex in a way that’s uniquely Kenya. The best examples combine zippy acidity, intense fruit, and juiciness in a way that we love. This year’s Mungaria hits that nail on the head for us.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn Kenya coffee-speak, a factory is a local cooperative, based around a single washing station, and these factories typically organize themselves into larger farmers cooperative societies (FCS) for export efficiencies, farmer trainings, financing, etc. In this case, 219 farmers deliver their coffee to Mungaria Factory, where it is washed using a single fermentation, and dried slowly on raised beds, without a post-wash soak. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMungaria is part of the larger Aguthi FCS, and while Mungaria is maybe more Huck-famous than world-famous, Aguthi has well-earned international fame. Coffees from fellow Aguthi factory, Thageini, have featured prominently on the World Barista Championship stage, and it’s no coincidence that Mungaria is also delicious.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOver the past few years, we’ve been lucky to get to know some of the folks at Mungaria, particularly factory president Pharis Kibilenge and factory secretary Bernard Waigwa. And while we’ve visited the factory in years past, this season was our first chance to visit during harvest and meet some of the farmers behind the coffee. While we’ve been excited about roasting Mungaria for years now, we came back from Kenya this January, even more excited and inspired than before.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis year’s Mungaria is a killer start to 2026 Kenyas. With nectarine-like fruitiness, cream soda sweetness and mouthwatering grapefruit and green grape acidity, this might be our favorite Mungaria to date!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003e*** For roasting schedule, shipping, receiving \u0026amp; additional information, please visit out \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/huckleberryroasters.com\/pages\/faq\"\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/a\u003e .
