Located on the southern slopes of Mt. Kenya near the town of Kianaga, Nyanja Factory is part of the Baragwi Farmers’
Cooperative Society (FCS), one of Kenya’s most established cooperatives. Baragwi FCS was founded in 1953 and today
supports over 11,700 smallholder farmers, each managing their own farms.
The cooperative provides centralized processing through its network of 12 wet mills, including Nyanja, and offers training in
agronomy and quality improvement practices. Nyanja sits at 1,610 MASL, an altitude that supports slow cherry
development, resulting in dense beans with layered, complex flavors.
Coffee at Nyanja is fully washed, a process that produces the clean, crisp profiles for which Kenyan coffees are world-
renowned. Freshly harvested cherries are delivered daily, sorted for ripeness, depulped, fermented, washed, and sun-dried
on raised beds, preserving clarity and vibrancy in the final cup.
