About this Coffee
The Gachatha Coffee Factory was formed back in 1963 and is located along the slopes of the Aberdare mountain range. As one of the most well-established wet mills in Nyeri, it benefits from the region’s deep, fertile red volcanic soils — ideal for growing top-quality coffee. Beyond coffee, the Co-op sets aside funds from each harvest to support its members, providing pre-financing for school fees, farm inputs, and emergency needs.
With bright notes of strawberry and lime, Gachatha is like summer in a mug — sweet, tart and perfect for those warmer days.

Tasting Notes
The Golden Ratio
We recommend a ratio of 60g of freshly ground coffee for every litre of water. This is a good place to start, but you can fine-tune your recipe to suit your taste. You'll find some suggested brewing ratios of hot water to ground coffee for you to use below.
