PRICING EXPLAINED
*This is the FOB (Free On Board) price: the price paid to the exporter before shipping, and which does not include shipping costs, weight loss (around 17%), storage and other charges. Ultimately, the FOB price represents the $ figure that stays in the coffee's country of origin, benefiting its producer, community, and beyond.
^This is the 'raw' price paid directly to the producer, and paid in the local currency for parchment coffee. The coffee is then milled and sorted before being placed in bags, ready for shipping.
ABOUT
This coffee was processed using the classic Kenyan washed method where the coffee cherries are hand-picked, pulped and then left to ferment for 12-24 hours. From here, the cherries are washed. Next, they undergo a second ferment submerged in water before being dried on raised beds for approximately 20 days.
The Mugaga co-op holds regular training sessions for its members to ensure quality, community and meaningful collaboration. This exchange of information and the regular change of farmer representatives ensures fairness and quality for all members.
