This is good Kenyan, but it's missing a little something. It's very smooth and has a pleasant natural sweetness. There's a touch of hibiscus/cranberry/tamarind flavor and fruitiness, then a very slight oakiness. The fruitiness is interesting and unique, but lacks brightness. The finish is smooth and clean.

More Details
Roast Level:
Light
Light roast coffee is a delicately roasted coffee that retains more of the beans' natural flavors and characteristics. Light-roasted coffees have bright acidity, complex fruit, and floral notes. Light roast coffee does not have less caffeine than darker roasts because caffeine levels remain stable during roasting.
Bean Source Country:
Kenya
Famed for its bold, bright acidity and fruity, wine-like flavors, Kenyan coffee often features blackcurrant, citrus, and tropical fruit notes. The high elevations, volcanic soil, and meticulous processing techniques contribute to the consistent, high-quality beans, with SL28 and SL34 among the most esteemed varieties.
