#18 Kenya

I had the oppertunity to meet Boyce in Berlin 2018. I was convinced that I should try out his coffees as he is high reputation as a farmer. All his coffees is usually sold out before the harvest is over. So I am really happy I got the oppertunity to get hold of this batch.

The Harris family has been living in kenya, since 1904 in the town of Thika (Central Province). Its a 5 generation coffee producer and today the own 2 farms. Chaia and Oreti.

The farm is located in the red soils of Chinia - which represents 73 hectares.

They produces varities as SL 14 and red bourbon, which is very unusual for Kenya. SL 14, was the first Variety to be planted in Kenya. And since then the SL 28 & SL 28 has taken the center stage in Kenya. Boyce is the only one to produce this variatal today..
