Kalita Wave

The flat bottom of this handy brewer is the key to making a consistently delicious cup, forcing water to reach all crevices of the ground coffee and developing a richer flavor along the way.

Sourcing & Processing

Peaberry, or single seed, coffee cherries are rare and highly sought after. They represent only about 5% of a given harvest. These were selected from the crops of over 700 small farms near the Gondo Factory in Muranga. This area, in the uplands of the Aberdare Mountain range, boasts rich red volcanic soil that is perfect for coffee cultivation.

The cherries are hand-sorted for ripeness, floated for density, and depulped before being washed. Next they are soaked in fresh water for a number of days to stop sugar fermentation. Finally, they are moved to raised bed to dry for two weeks. This results in a sweet, floral cup with strong citrus flavors and a refined elegance.
