Kenya
Ol'ochoy Farm, Nandi County
The family-owned coffee farm is located in the highlands of Western Kenya, more precisely in the Nandi County region (Rift Valley) on Monkey Hill at an altitude of over 1900 meters. Coffee farmer Paul Nian (57) – himself a trained lawyer – works together with his family, producing some of the finest micro-lot specialties in his region on his 30-hectare farm. He cultivates his Arabica plants using state-of-the-art processing methods and smart farming.
Varieties & Process

Olochoy is a selectively hand-picked lot of the new varieties Batian and Ruiru 11. It was fermented washed, as is customary in Kenya. The coffee was then laid out to dry on African beds for 30 days.

Olochoy AB
In terms of taste, this espresso has everything you need to conjure up a really delicious and creamy cup at home. In the cup, we taste extraordinary notes of almond butter, red currant and chocolate.

In particular, the region's nutrient-rich soils and washed fermentation influence the taste of this amazing Arabica coffee, which we are sourcing from Paul Nian's Olochoy farm for the third time.
Kenya Qualities
Coffees from Kenya are not only very popular with us. They are known for their fine acidity and high flavor intensity, which results in a particularly clean cup. This means that the coffee is free from defects and does not contain any unwanted aromas.

The abbreviation “AB” stands for the quality of the green coffee. Almost every country has its own system for qualifying coffee beans. In East Africa, the following classes are distinguished: AA, AB, A, B, C and PB (the small peaberry beans). Size, shape and the proportion of defective beans are assessed. Kenya AB is one of the highest quality beans. They are only surpassed by the AA category.
The story of Paul
Paul Nian, 56, is a returnee to Nandi County. As one of the few from his region, he made the leap to the capital Nairobi as a young man - as a lawyer. He then returned to his old home. He now runs his own coffee farm there and promotes his home region to deliberately counteract the rural exodus: “People should see that you can make a good living from farming,” he says. He is an absolute family man and the father of four children.
Social Engagement
0.25/kg green coffee is donated to the NGO Crossroads. Crossroads is a project farm where young people are helped to escape crime. In the mountains of the Nandi Hills in western Kenya, at-risk young people without access to education have been given the chance of vocational training since 2005.

Important note for ground coffee:
Please note that we cannot offer a universal grind for ground coffee for use in portafilter machines. The optimum grind must be individually adjusted to the respective machine, as factors such as sieve size, pump and brewing pressure as well as temperature vary greatly depending on the model. We therefore always recommend buying whole beans and adjusting the grind yourself to suit your machine.

Important note on returns:
Ground coffee cannot be exchanged as it is only ground at the customer’s request. Thank you for your understanding.

Sustainable cultivation and quality awareness
As with wine, the origin, cultivation and careful harvesting of coffee form the basis for a specialty coffee. We only use ripe and hand-picked 100% Arabica coffee beans for our coffees, as the laborious manual harvest is an essential quality criterion. Our highland coffees are natural products and are grown in shady forest gardens in an environmentally friendly way. This preserves the biodiversity of the growing region. The coffee cherries can ripen slowly at cool altitudes with nutritious and fertile soil conditions. Under these optimal climatic conditions near the equator, the coffee plants have more time to develop their characteristic and fruity aromas.  
Freshly roasted by hand
All Röststätte coffees are gently roasted by hand in Berlin so that the natural aromas can fully develop without any unwanted acidity. To achieve a pronounced body and a versatile taste profile in the cup, we want to emphasize and optimally process the special features of the respective variety, farm and origin of the coffee with our roasting. The aim is therefore to exploit the full potential of the green coffee through our roasting method in order to emphasize the valuable work of the producers in the countries where the coffee is grown. These are our quality principles – from source to the final cup.
