Background:
We have tasted Kieni, represented by many great roasters, each year. This year, we got to buy Keini and bring in this particular lot number for ourselves. The team at Interamerican (importers) have done a great job helping us secure some of our favourite Kenyan coffees of the last few years. We are now delivering Kieni to you, for the third year in a row.
Made of Many:
Based in Stanmore in Sydney Inner West, Made of Many believes that people are the best versions of themselves when they pursue what they love. Their passion is to engage and captivate through the way they source and roast coffee.
All of their coffees are sourced through importers they know and trust. They focus on sourcing coffees that have vivid varietal/origin characteristics. Their offerings reflect the current season of coffees from passionate producers.
Made of Many is dedicated to the craft and is always looking for better ways to display the vivid character within a particular coffee and honour the passionate work that goes into growing it.
