Thunguri - Anaerobic Natural

From Nyeri, Kenya at 1,800–2,000 meters, Thunguri Coffee Factory's anaerobic natural represents a leap forward in Kenyan processing innovation. Cherries are hand-sorted, then fermented in dry-ice-sealed tanks for 72 hours with regular agitation before drying 28 days on raised beds—a controlled approach that yields cleaner, brighter results than typical naturals. Expect a bold fruit profile: blackberry compote, hibiscus florals, and the signature Kenyan black currant note, rounded out by dark red fruit and jammy sweetness. This is a coffee that demands patience (off-gassing required) and rewards it with complexity rarely seen in East African naturals.
