The Origin

The Ilama coffee from Crosby Coffee originates from the Santa Barbara region of Honduras.

This coffee is sourced from over 23 farms in the Santa Barbara region, all located between Lake Yojoa and Santa Barbara Mountain.

Due to the climate in this area, the crops provide a very consistent cup profile year on year – with a good structure, and tropical fruit and honey flavours.

Once picked these cherries are manually de-pulped and fermented in large concrete tanks for approximately 16 hours.

Then the parchment is rinsed to remove residual mucilage and laid out on raised African beds to dry for 10-25 days.

The Origin

The Sasini coffee from Crosby Coffee originates from the Kiambu region of Kenya.

Crosby Coffee Kenya

The Sasini coffee was processed naturally, which is not usually done in Kenyan coffees.

This means that selected cherries are dried in the sun on raised African beds for up to 6 weeks.

The cherries are carefully turned to ensure a consistent drying process and prevent over-fermentation. This is a careful process and the results are worth the time and effort.

Kiambu county is located just outside of Nairobi city.

The region has a long history of coffee production and is famous for its large estates, which were originally built by British colonists in the early 20th century.

After decolonisation the estates were sold to local Kenyans who have been managing them since.

While estates such as this used to produce the majority of Kenyan coffee, the increased urban sprawl from Nairobi, as well as the increasing land value in the region has meant that estate coffee production has gradually diminished, while smallholder production elsewhere has increased.

Nevertheless, estates such as Sasini continue a legacy of many generations of coffee production, supported by unparalleled local knowledge and experience.
