While this solved yield problems, the classic Kenyan flavor profile began to fade as traditional SL varieties declined. In response, exporter and producer Kamavindi Coffee took a different path. Prioritizing quality over yield, they have carefully maintained the SL series to preserve the true identity of Kenyan coffee.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4\"\u003eThe Thunguri Factory operates under the Rumukia Farmers' Cooperative Society (FCS). Over 700 smallholder farmers—each cultivating around 250 coffee trees on half-acre plots—bring their harvests here. This collaborative system pools cherries from numerous dedicated farmers into a single washing station to create Thunguri's exceptional coffee.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"5\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003e\u0026lt; Natural Heavy (NH) \u0026gt;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003e\"NH\" stands for Natural Heavy.
