This single-farmer microlot is sourced from Kennedy Kiptoo, a father of eight living in Fort Ternan, Kericho county, in South-Western Kenya. Kennedy’s ‘Longoi Estate' spans approximately 12 hectares, two of which are dedicated to coffee cultivation, and it stretches up to 1,600masl in altitude. Kennedy grows SL and Ruiru 11 varieties in addition to tea, maize, beans, and cattle for dairy production.
The post-harvest process is carried out on the farm, including drying on raised African beds. Once the parchment coffee reaches the desired moisture level, it is allowed to rest before being transported to the Kipkellion Dry Mill for further processing. 
Kennedy's farm is located near Fort Ternan, a small town in Kericho county 50km east of Kisumu. Kericho county is in Kenya’s Great Rift Valley region of south-west Kenya. While the county produces an abundance of speciality coffee, it is famously home to multiple large tea estates and is world renowned for its tea production. Like most of Kenya's coffee-growing regions, Kericho county boasts high altitudes and highly fertile volcanic soils which typically produce medium-high acidity in the cup with notes of citrus and rich chocolate.
