resting our coffees

cafēn coffees are roasted to order. in the days that follow, freshly roasted coffee continues to evolve. as carbon dioxide gradually releases, the coffee begins to truly open up - harsh, roasty, or astringent notes soften, allowing a sweeter, cleaner, and more expressive cup to emerge.

resting gives the coffee space for its true character to shine.

we recommend resting our coffees for at least 14 days after the roast date. denser or high-elevation lots often reach their peak between 3 to 6 weeks.

producer 

Kahawa Endelevu is a small farm in Githunguri, Kiambu County, sitting at 1760 masl. established in the 1970s, the farm spans 6.5 hectares and grows classic Kenyan cultivars including SL28 and SL34, managed with a single-stem system for precise tree-by-tree care. run by a dedicated team of four permanent workers (plus seasonal support at harvest), Kahawa Endelevu is known for meticulously separated lots and a quality-first approach, producing clean naturals, hydro-anaerobic fermentations, honey and anaerobic styles, and building their own washing station to expand washed processing.

process yellow honey

ripe SL28 cherries are selectively harvested, then floated to remove low-density fruit. the cherries are pulped, leaving part of the sticky mucilage on the parchment (the “honey” layer). drying is done slowly on raised beds, where gentle fermentation continues during the drying phase, building a deep sweetness and body while keeping the cup clear and structured.
