The region receives annual rainfall between 1,200 and 1,500 mm, split into short and long rainy seasons. The main crop relies on the long rains from April to June, while the fly crop benefits from the rainfall in October and November. \u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eCoffee plants thrive on deep red volcanic soils at an altitude of 2,500 metres above sea level, with farmers cultivating varieties such as SL 28, K7, Ruiru 11, and Batian. Red ripe cherries are selectively handpicked by farmers and delivered to the Thunguri wet mill on the same day for pulping. After pulping, the beans are fermented for 16-18 hours to remove mucilage. Following fermentation, the beans are washed and graded. The cherries are processed using the wet processing method, which utilises clean water from the Kangocho stream. The processing water is recirculated before being disposed of in evaporation and seepage pits. The parchment is then dried under the sun to a moisture content of 10.5 -11.5%, before being delivered to the dry mill for secondary processing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jammy, Black Currants, Crisp Acidity","offers":[{"title":"Whole bean","offer_id":53337093832971,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ground for filter","offer_id":53337093865739,"sku":null,"price":23.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/8225\/1531\/files\/Kenya-ThunguriAA.png?v=1788364561","url":"https:\/\/koppi.se\/products\/kenya-thunguri-aa-250g","provider":"Koppi Roasters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
