Kenya Fairview Estate

At the heart of Kenya's Central Highlands, home to the world's finest coffee, lies Fairview coffee Estate. This beautiful 300 acre coffee farm is situated about 11 Km from Nairobi, the capital city of Kenya and lies at an altitude of 1750M above sea level. Overlooking the beautiful Mt. Kenya the Estate is home to abundant native flora and fauna species. Riara river which is fed by streams from the Kenyan Highlands and transverses the farm provides clean and reliable water for processing and irrigation. The fertile soils have produced high quality coffee for over 80 years through the use of holistic production methods that take our customers concerns for a healthy environment at heart. Fairview Estate is a family owned entity that has spanned 3 generations amassing wealths of experience in Coffee production. This is evident through the existence of both indigenous and exotic trees, a cascading waterfall and a scenic /picnic site. Natural vegetation like sesbania and fig trees are conserved in their most natural state. Rivers and catchments are conserved in their true natural state. Prevention of encroachment is done by leaving a belt of natural uncultivated cover at least 100m from the river and dams in the Estate. We also have not had any new planting since 1926 in order to improve the flora of the land by preserving the existing natural forest, reclaiming and afforesting new land and reforesting land, which had been harvested.

Cupping Notes: Ah Kenya can anything more be said about this important component of any type of coffee blend. The aroma and flavor is pleasing with a balanced acidity and body that accentuates the other coffee flavors of your blend. Also, works great as an everyday or morning coffee.
