The Cup

What it tastes like

Bold and structured, with a blackcurrant acidity that lingers into a red apple sweetness and a low note of cacao.

The Origin

Where it comes from

The volcanic red soils of Mount Kenya's foothills give this coffee its distinctive intensity. Smallholder farmers deliver ripe cherry daily to the Kiangoi wet mill.

The People

Who grows it

Sourced in partnership with Kiangoi Farmers Cooperative Society, whose relationship with our roastery goes beyond a single harvest.

The Process

Washed

Processed using the washed method, chosen by the producer for how it expresses this particular lot.

The Roast

Medium-Light roast

A slightly extended development time tempers the natural acidity of SL28 without dulling its signature brightness.

Brew It

How we drink it

Excellent as a French press — the fuller body carries the fruit well.
