CJ1132 - Kenya Nyeri Karatina Double Washed Crown Jewel July 24Th, 2017 | See This Coffee Online Here 
CJ1132 - Kenya Nyeri Karatina Double Washed Crown Jewel July 24th, 2017 | See This Coffee Online Here Intro by Chris Kornman Nyeri coffees are almost always at the top of a cupper’s list of favorites, and this exceptional coffee from the Karatina Factory (aka Washing Station) is unquestionably the cream of the crop. Described as having a prototypical Kenya profile, an argument could be made that this coffee is the standard against which to measure the rest. The flavor profile reads like a summer music festival lineup of classic Kenya flavor notes, opening with juicy blackberry, savory sundried tomato, and blackcurrant jam, and headlined by zesty-sweet ruby red grapefruit. Karatina belongs to a small but exceptional Cooperative Society called Barichu that includes Gaturiri and Gatomboya factories and together represent fewer than 1000 smallholder farming families. The farms and factories are located within Central Kenya’s Nyeri county, bordered on the west by the Aberdares range, and on the northeast by Mount Kenya. In all of Africa, only Kilimanjaro tops the maximum elevation of Mount Kenya. Smallholders like those that contribute to Karatina tend to measure their plots by number of trees rather than acreage, averaging around 250 coffee plants per plot. Many are inter-cropping to improve the biodiversity of the region and the security of their harvest, planting banana, grevillea, and macadamia in addition to coffee. Kenya’s auction system elevates the value of exceptional coffees, and keeps the country’s coffee margins high, stable, and independent of the volatile C Market. Like most Kenyan growing regions, coffee in Nyeri benefits from its equatorial location and two distinct annual rainy seasons, resulting in a main crop in the winter and a “fly” crop harvested in the summer.

Project: Proposed Dualing of Kenol-Sagana-Marua Road (84Km)
Language: English Original: English PROJECT: PROPOSED DUALING OF KENOL-SAGANA-MARUA ROAD (84KM) COUNTRY: KENYA RAP SUMMARY FOR THE PROPOSED DUALLING OF KENOL – SAGANA – MARUA ROAD Date: March 2019 Team Leader: Z. TESSEMA, Chief Transport Engineer, RDGE.3 Preparation Team E&S Team Member: E.B. KAHUBIRE, Social Development Officer, RDGE4 /SNSC 1 PROJECT TITLE: KENOL – SAGANA – MARUA ROAD PROJECT PROJECT NUMBER: P-KE-DB0-037 COUNTRY: KENYA CATEGORY: 1 CATEGORY: 1 Sector: PICU Project Category: 1 2 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. The Kenol – Sagana – Marua Road is part of the “Great North Road” from Mombasa, through Nairobi and on to Moyale - and hence to Ethiopia and Addis Ababa. It forms part of the 800km stretch between Nairobi and Moyale and is situated in the three counties of Muranga, Kirinyaga and Nyeri. The road starts at the junction with C71 (Kenol) and traverses through the trading centres of Makutano (Junction A2/B6), Sagana, Karatina before terminating at Marua (Junction A2/B5). 1.2. The existing road is a single carriageway to bitumen standards. It is a constriction – an impediment to flow of the high traffic experienced between Nairobi and Isiolo/Nyeri towns as well as other roads serving off shoot towns like Embu, Meru, Mwea, Kerugoya, Kutus, Kagio, Baricho, Kagumo,Mukurweini, Tumutumu among others that connect to this arterial road at various points. The road therefore requires upgrading to dual carriageway to absorb and serve this traffic and support the socio-economic growth of the area. The route from the Port of Mombasa to Addis Ababa, via Nairobi, Isiolo and Moyale, holds economic advantages for Kenya in her trade with Ethiopia.
