Peach & Caramel tart, vine-ripened tomato with beautiful balance


A moving image that sees empowered women at the forefront of an inspiring tale.

Some 4 years ago, women from the Kabn’etuny and Kapkikai Coffee Association paved the way for their communities, pioneering the coffee industry.

With the support of Fairtrade and Solidaridad, their humble successes began with gifted seedlings and has resulted in a promise of world-class specialty coffee lovingly-nurtured from the Rift Valley highlands of Nandi Hills and the largest Indigenous Montane forest in East Africa. The Kabng’etuny Farmers Co-Operative Society was formed to bring you a beautiful blend of sweet peach and buttery caramel tart, vine ripened tomato, beautifully balanced from altitudes of 2000m above sea level.
