Kerugoya, Kirinyaga, Kenya, Africa - washed
This coffee is a very sweet one - literally. Apart from that you'll find notes of blackberry, plum, pineapple, pear, also lemon zest, cherry and at the very end even some hints of caramel and light milk chocolate. And of course - like in many Kenyan coffees - also this one holds hints of tomato. It is a complex coffee indeed. And when it cools down it can never be too cold: It's a brilliant base for a good and tasty cold brew coffee as well!
Enjoy your coffee!
