ABOUT AGUTHI FARMERS' CO-OPERATIVE SOCIETY

The Aguthi Farmers Co-operative Society have four wet mills (Thageini, Gaaki, Gititu and Kagumo), with the Thageini mill the second largest in terms of member producers (around 350 men and 100 women). The whole Aguthi Co-op has around 2,000 producer members. Once wet milling has taken place, the parchment is dried out and delivered to the Sagana Coffee dry mill.

ABOUT NYERI COUNTY

Most of the coffees from Nyeri develop and mature slowly, producing extra-hard beans. The region is traditionally known as the heart of Kenya, with cool temperatures and red volcanic soils rich in phosphorus. The fertile central highlands lie between the Eastern base of the Aberdare (Nyandarua) Range, which forms part of the Eastern end of the Great Rift Valley, and the Western slopes of Mt. Kenya. Nyeri town (county headquarters) acts as a destination for those visiting Aberdare National Park and Mt. Kenya’s black gold coffee.

We love our Coffees!

The understanding of how good coffee is made is a long, tedious, continuous but fun process. Cloud Catcher started from scratch by tracing the green beans back to its origins and learning how they are treated as young saplings in the nursery, choosing the right soil, harvesting, sorting, blending, roasting, cupping and scoring based on taste. A good cup of coffee takes 20% brewing skills, 30% roasting style and techniques and the balance 50% is determined by the source.
