George Howell Coffee

Mamuto AA, Kenya

Mamuto grows on the slopes of Mt. Kenya in the Kirinyaga region, where the late Walter Mathagu spent decades establishing small-farm quality standards before his sons Peter, Jason, and Patrick took over. The coffee is washed and dried on-farm, then rested in parchment for six weeks in aerated bins to develop complexity. SL-28 varietal delivers lush dark fruit, full body, and perfect sweetness—terroir-driven flavors that George Howell has sourced continuously since 2006. This is benchmark Kenyan coffee that justifies comparison to fine Bordeaux.
