The Chepsangor Hills Washing station is located in the Nandi coffee growing region. The station had been out of operation for years, until 2016 when Rosabella Langat and Sammy decided to leave their professional careers in Nairobi to return to their roots and dedicate themselves to coffee, thus reactivating the activity and servicing the entire producing community in the area.

Today they grow and process coffee cherries in an area that was once a plantation in the 1950s. For decades many locals stopped producing coffee because it was associated with the colonial period, and the few remaining coffee farmers had to carry their cherries more than 20 km to process them, as the old pulping station had been destroyed. Rosabella and Sammy filled the gap by installing an environmentally friendly pulping machine in Chepsangor with a capacity of 1.5 tons per hour, which has given a new impetus to coffee cultivation in the nearby hills.

Currently, Chepsangor receives cherries from more than 150 Producers, mainly SL 28, Batian and Ruiru 11 varieties. In total, around 45,000 coffee trees are processed, grown between 1,700 and 2,000 meters above sea level on volcanic soils. Together with Rosabella, Sammy and his team we developed several of our processes, including Natural Sleeping Bag, DF Washed and OOTB Anaerobic Natural Mountain Dry, among others.
