Zawadi | Kenyan Single Origin | Medium Roast | B Corp Certified | Direct Trade | Natural Processed| Subscription

Zawadi is the Swahili word for gift. We named this roast for the only gift that doesn't depreciate.

Producer: Derek Mbugua

Farm: Imani Farm, Kiambu, Kenya

Education compounds. Every lesson builds on the last, every mind developed ripples outward into a community, a generation, a future Kenya that doesn't have to fight the same battles its parents did.

This coffee is natural processed — dried inside the whole cherry fruit, absorbing sugars and flavor from the pulp over weeks in the open air. It's the oldest processing method in the world, and it produces a cup with heavier body, deeper sweetness, and bolder fruit character than washed coffees. Grown by Derek Mbugua, this medium roast opens up the more you sit with it: dried plum, currant, peach, berries, and vanilla, layered into a finish that rewards patience the same way education does.

Every bag of Zawadi funds scholarships for Kenyan youth through the KICE Foundation — turning a morning cup into a student's seat in a classroom.
