New Ground
AB Gulmarg
Plum, Apple and Pear
This is a honey processed lot, relatively unheard of for Kenyan coffee. Ripe cherries are carefully selected and floated in clean water to remove any immature or poor quality cherries, which float to the top of the tank. These top cherries are then de-pulped to remove the majority of the fruit, whilst retaining the sugary mucilage on the outside of the bean.
The coffee is then placed straight onto raised African beds to dry in the sun. The parchment must be consistently turned to prevent over-fermentation, mould, or the clumping from the sugars drying on the bean.
After the parchment reaches its optimum moisture content of 12.5% it is rested in a cool, dry environment prior to secondary processing (hulling, grading and hand-picking).

NewGround started when a couple of mates wanted to really enjoy every single cup of coffee. We wanted to source new and exceptional coffees and help drive the growing coffee culture in Oxford and The UK.
We also wanted to use the business to help tackle social injustice.
It's well known that prisoners are much more likely to re-offend after release if they are without training and jobs. So a business that creates opportunities has to help, right? We think so, and that’s what keeps us motivated every day. That and sourcing and roasting some of the world’s finest coffees.
