The factory was constructed in 1995 and originally operated under the Ngiriama Cooperative Society. Upon the society’s dissolution, Kii Factory then became part of Rung'eto in 1997. Today, 850 active members deliver coffee to Kii, where the factory’s team oversees sorting, processing, drying, and preparation for export.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1657\"\u003eThe station sits near the forested slopes of Mount Kenya, where the Kii River begins.

The area’s cool temperatures, plentiful annual rainfall, and elevations reaching 1,800 masl create a strong environment for Kenya’s celebrated coffee varieties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2329\"\u003eAt Kii, coffee is handled with the kind of structured care that defines classic Kenyan washed processing. Ripe cherries are sorted before pulping, then the parchment ferments overnight. After washing, the coffee is graded into density-separated lots and dried on raised tables for 8 to 14 days. Clarity and consistency are truly emphasized, allowing the character of the varieties to come through in the final cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2745\"\u003eManaged by factory manager Danson and supported by the cooperative’s 850 active farmers, Kii is a strong example of the community-driven production model at the heart of Kenyan coffee.
