This coffee is named after the woman whose belief and technical skill have inspired many producers and estates, including Elshadai Estate who produced this coffee.
This area of Nyeri has a rich tradition of high quality coffee production, but with market turns over the last decade many farmers are selling their land to real estate investors.
Judith sits on many coffee boards across Kenya and has introduced new ways of farming and processing methods, helping traditional producers grow and adapt, and match that coffee with appropriate buyers.
Elshadai Estate coffee is a high grown top-quality coffee from the slopes of the Aberdare Mountains in the central highlands of Kenya, just south of the Equator.
With the belief and courage of Judith, they are holding onto their land and produced this beautiful cup with bright acidity, complex florals, and sweetness of berries and stone fruit.
