More Details

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.
Bean Source Region: Nyeri
Specialty coffee from Nyeri, a region in the central highlands of Kenya, is highly prized for its bright acidity, complex flavor profile, and rich body. The coffee is often grown at 1,500 to 2,100 meters above sea level, benefiting from volcanic soil and a climate marked by adequate rainfall and moderate temperatures. These factors contribute to the development of coffee cherries rich in sugars and acids, creating a cup that often exhibits notes of blackcurrant, citrus, and tropical fruit, layered with subtle floral and tea-like undertones.
Espresso
Espresso is a concentrated coffee beverage brewed by forcing hot water through finely-ground coffee beans under high pressure. It is characterized by its rich flavor and distinctive crema—the creamy layer that forms on top of the extracted process. When evaluating espresso, coffee experts often focus on key tasting characteristics such as aroma, flavor, body, and aftertaste. Aroma refers to the fragrant smells released during brewing, while flavor encompasses the coffee's overall taste profile, including notes of sweetness, bitterness, acidity, and richness. Body refers to the coffee's texture or mouthfeel, with descriptors like full-bodied, medium-bodied, or light-bodied. Aftertaste, or the finish, pertains to the lingering flavors and sensations experienced after swallowing the coffee. A well-prepared espresso is prized for its balance and complexity, combining these sensory attributes into a harmonious whole.
