Floral jasmine aromas, bright tangerine sweetness, silky tea-like body.

This seasonal Kenyan coffee from Kirinyaga offers an approachable introduction to the vibrant character of Kenyan coffees. Combining floral aromatics with bright, juicy sweetness and a soft, tea-like body, it’s an elegant and expressive cup at an accessible price point.

Processing
The coffee is fully washed, with cherries undergoing three sequential 24-hour fermentations to enhance clarity and refine acidity. After fermentation, the parchment is carefully washed and dried on raised beds, allowing for even airflow and controlled moisture reduction. This method preserves the delicate floral and fruity characteristics of the SL28 and SL34 varietals while promoting consistency in the cup.

Taste Profile
Aromatics of rosehip and subtle florals. Bright, juicy blackberry-like sweetness with a soft, tea-like body. Clean acidity and a lingering, refined finish highlight the coffee’s clarity and expressive character.
